Preserving component and workspace configuration
At regular intervals or whenever you want, you can create
and preserve the record of the configuration of the component and
workspace in the Jazz™ source
control. You can later restore the component or workspace to that
configuration.
- Creating a component baseline
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.
- Taking a workspace snapshot
A workspace snapshot is a baseline of all of components
in that repository workspace. You can take a workspace snapshot to
create a record of the configuration of all components.
Whenever you want, you can return to the previous snapshot configuration.
- Replacing workspace contents with a snapshot
You can replace the contents of a workspace with the contents
stored in a snapshot.
