New Options on the Setup Menu<br />

The new Release Setup group of functions on the Setup menu allows you to define<br />

many of the additional data elements and tables that are required for configuring<br />

release management.<br />

<strong>SDM</strong>-<strong>DesignTracker</strong> Setup Menu<br />

35, Release Types<br />

Release types define the types of releases you manage. For ease of use, release types<br />

are user-defined so that the terminology you currently use for identifying standard<br />

and PTF releases can be reflected in the release control process.<br />

36, Release Status<br />

The software release process configuration links release types and categories to a<br />

release status.<br />

The release status defines the path a release must follow before it can be changed to<br />

the next available status. It also defines the functions that can or can not be<br />

performed to the release during each phase of the cycle.<br />

37, Media<br />

Media definitions allow you to define the media available for distribution to customer<br />

systems. Media types can be tape or electronic.<br />

Electronic media definitions contain all of the communication parameters needed to<br />

pass-through and/or process deliveries to a customer system. These definitions are then<br />

attached to the customer system and used to select the actual devices.<br />

38, System Types<br />

System types are associated with customer systems and define the kind of computer<br />

systems they have.<br />
