Prevent an IBM Rhapsody model from being saved

Question & Answer


Question

Is there a mode to prevent an IBM Rhapsody model from being saved?

Cause

Looking to prevent model from being updated.

Answer

To prevent a Rhapsody model from being updated, you can use the variable SV_LMT_MODE. If you set the variable SV_LMT_MODE=TRUE. This should prevent you from saving a model.

Open the rhapsody.ini file and place the above variable under the "General" section of the file and when you open Rhapsody you are able to make modifications to the model, but the work that is done will not be saved
