Create Distributed Attribute Schema

To create the distributed attribute schema, the user must:

•

Link binding and bound elements

•

•

•

•

Define which database the bound elements are created and stored in

•

•

•

It is assumed that the two administrative levels, DSXWLD and DSXGRP elements have been navigated to or have being created.

Create DSXSCH Element

DSXSCH elements represent distributed attribute schema and consists of a name and an optional default home reference. The default home reference specifies the location that the bound elements are created in. The location can be overridden at lower levels in the schema.

Refer to Distributed Attributes, Configuration and Usage Details for further information.

Create DSXOWN Element

DSXOWN represents the binding element type definition, the user can define the element type that may be extended by attributes. The definition contains an element list which designates the element type and a default home reference that specifies the hierarchy where the Bound elements are created.

Refer to Distributed Attributes, Configuration and Usage Details for further information.

Create DSXMBR Element

The DSXMBR binds the distributed attributes to the binding element defined by the owning DSXOWN. The definition specifies which XPITEM based UDETs that can be used as attributes for the specified owner. There is a cardinality definition available that defines the minimum and maximum number of each of the attributes that may be created. A -1 in the maximum definition represents an infinite number. It also contains an allocation reference that might override anything defined at schema or owner level. The default Home definition is the location where attributes are created and managed.

Refer to Distributed Attributes, Configuration and Usage Details for further information.

Create DSXHOM Element

The DSXHOM element represent the actual default home, for example: creates the top-level elements where the attribute groups are created.

the default home destination contains a string or ID expression that evaluates the name or ID of the default home to be used.

Refer to Distributed Attributes, Configuration and Usage Details for further information.

Create DSXTST Element

The DSXTST element defines the default home valve as a text string. It also contains a test that needs to yield true upon evaluation for considering this default home being valid.

Refer to Distributed Attributes, Configuration and Usage Details for further information.

Create DSXDST Element

The DSXDST element denotes the default home valve as a text string. It contains a test that needs to yield true upon evaluation for considering this default home being valid.

Refer to Distributed Attributes, Configuration and Usage Details for further information.
