You can simulate the process of applying a change list to the target repository to see the results and fix any errors before actually executing the changes.
To simulate applying a change list:
Click the
Simulate
button.
Repository Manager
prompts you to confirm running the simulation.
Click
Yes
to confirm.
If the target repository is currently registered with a proxy user,
Repository Manager
prompts you to enter the owner password for this repository.
If prompted, enter the password of the ORS schema owner.
Data integrity validation is performed based on the user choice. A dialog box asks the user to select if the data integrity validation is to be performed before promoting the changes (either in promote ChangeList or Visual).
Repository Manager
runs the simulation and displays a message about the results.
Click
OK
.
If you encounter a failure message, you should fix the problem(s) and run the simulation again before actually applying the changes to the target repository. Otherwise, the process of applying changes will likely fail.
