Multi User Development of Repositories (MUD)


MUD is a feature of the BI EE admin tool where in multiple users can work on the repository at the same time
Oracle BI repository development environment is not set up for multiple users. A more efficient development environment would permit developers to modify a repository simultaneously and then check in changes
Steps :
  1. Copy the Master RPD in Shared file.
  2. Extract the RPD to Local Machine
  3. Make local change in the local machine rpd
  4. Merge local changes to master RPD
  5. Resolve conflicts
  6. Save and Check the Consistency
  7. Publish changes

Creating Projects
•      File > Open > Offline
•      Manage > Projects>New Project
•      Provide a Name to the project
•      Select rpd objects to be part of the project and save

MUD Menu Options
Compare with Original. Compares the working extracted local repository to the original extracted repository. When this option is selected, the Compare repositories dialog opens and lists all the changes made to the working extracted repository since you checked out the projects.
•      Merge Local Changes. Locks the master repository on the network multiuser directory to allow you to check in your changes.
•      Publish to Network. After you successfully merge your changes, the master repository opens locally and the Publish to Network submenu item is available. When you select this option, the lock is removed, the repository is published, and the repository closes.
•      Undo Merge Local Changes. Rolls back any previously merged local changes, and leaves the repository checked out so that you can make additional changes and then merge your local changes again. This option is only available after you have already merged local changes.
•      Discard Local Changes. Any time after check out and before check in, you can discard your changes. When you select this option, the working repository closes without giving you an opportunity to save your work.
