A component baseline saves the current state of the component.
Suppose you have to deliver a critical change set that can affect
the component. Before delivering the change set, you can take the
baseline of the component as a preventive measure. After delivering
the critical change set, if you think that something has gone wrong,
you can replace it with the baseline component.
About this task
To create a component baseline:
- In the Pending Changes tool window,
navigate to the component that you want to baseline.
- Right-click the component and click .
- Type a logical name for the baseline and click OK. If there are unresolved changes in the component, a dialog box
is displayed. To create the baseline without unresolved changes, click OK. You can see the baseline inside the Outgoing folder
of the component.
What to do next
Right-click the baseline to do the following operations:
- Deliver: Delivers the baseline to the component's
flow target.
- Expand Children: Expands all the folders
inside the baseline.
