Manage Packages

You can add, modify, stage, promote, and delete packages in the Noetix Views Workbench (NoetixViews Workbench).

IMPORTANT: The following points need to be considered when managing packages:

• If you try to modify a package that is presently being edited by another user, the NoetixViews Workbench will display a message that the package has been locked, and that you will have to wait for the other user to finish modifying the package.

• If Stage 4 has failed for the underlying NoetixViews schema, you may still be able to access the environment to modify views and correct customizations. The environment can be accessed if the N APPLICATION OWNERS table has records, and the CURRENT CHECKPOINT LABEL column in the N VIEW PARAMETERS table returns the INSTALL COMPLETE, META DATA LOAD, or POST VIEW CREATE value. Alternatively, instead of performing these checks, contact insightsoftwareSupport.

• You cannot make modifications to a package in an environment if there are customizations in the environment that need to be upgraded. For information about upgrading customizations, see How to Upgrade NoetixViews Workbench Customizations in "Upgrade NoetixViews Workbench Customizations."
