162 Getting started with InfoSphere Data Architect For example, if you do not implement a naming standard for logical data models, expand the Logical data model -> Design suggestions node and deselect the Naming standard category. 3. Once you have made your changes, click Apply, then click OK. The next time you validate your data model, your preferred categories and rules are selected. 9.4 Summary In this chapter you have learned how to analyze a model to make sure that it conforms to organizational standards or standard design syntax rules. You learned about warnings and errors in the Problems view and how to address them. 9.5 Exercise Modify the default preferences for the Analyze Model wizard. 1. First, analyze your existing physical and logical data models without changing the default settings. Document your results. 2. Then, use the Preferences window to ensure that both physical and logical data models are not checked for naming standards, table spaces, or dimensional modeling rules. 3. Analyze your physical and logical data models, and document the results. Do not fix the warnings or errors. 4. Then, open the Preferences window and restore the default settings for the model validation tool. 9.6 Review questions 1. At what level of a data model can you invoke the Analyze Model wizard? A. Model file B. Diagram C. Package, database, or schema D. Entity or table 2. What type of validation occurs when you analyze your models? A. Best practices B. Model syntax C. Valid design D. All of the above 3. Warnings point out potential problems in the following area: A. Database limitations and best practices B. Organizational requirements
Chapter 9 – Analyzing Data Models 163 C. Both A and B D. None of the above 4. How do you change the default preferences for the Analyze Model wizard? 5. When is the best time to analyze a model? 6. What should you keep in mind when analyzing your data model or determining whether to address a warning? 7. True or false: You must correct warnings in the Problems view. 8. True or false: Your model is considered invalid if there are errors in the Problems view.
