Deploying a content export package

A content package is a bundle of predefined views, queries, product groupings, enumerations, and analysis filters and profile templates, deployed by the administrator. The "Sample" and "Analysis" content packages are installed and available initially, but others can be downloaded, installed, and deployed. If you want to use the sample views, queries, product groupings, and enumerations, and analysis filters and profile templates, but they do not display in the user interface, you must deploy the "Sample" and "Analysis" folders. The process to download and install the sample report is also described.

Content packages must be installed on the machine hosting the Rational® Engineering Lifecycle Manager server. On the machine where Rational Engineering Lifecycle Manager is installed, extract the content packages to RELM_HOME/server/conf/relm/contents

The sample report, sample.dta, is available in RELM_HOME/server/conf/relm/reports. Copy the file to a location easily accessible to team members, and then tell the team where the file is located.

Additional packages, such as those for ISO-26262, can be found at Content Packages for IBM® Rational Engineering Lifecycle Manager

Installing a content package as an administrator

Once you have downloaded the content package, access the Rational Engineering Lifecycle Manager administration using the Administration icon administration gear icon and select Deploy Predefined Contents. From the list of available packages, click Deploy for those you want applied to this project.
