What's new in Rhapsody Model Manager
Learn more about what’s new and changed in Rhapsody® Model Manager 7.0.3.
For more information about features in IBM® Engineering Lifecycle Management, see What's new in IBM Engineering Lifecycle Management 7.0.3.
The following sections summarize the changes:
Redesigned Engineering Lifecycle Management product documentation
- To make it easier to find relevant product documentation, documentation for IBM Engineering Lifecycle Management suite products is now separated on IBM Documentation.The IBM Engineering Lifecycle Management suite landing page groups the documentation for the following products:
- Engineering Workflow Management
- Engineering Test Management
- Engineering Requirements Management DOORS® Next
- Engineering Insights
- IBM Engineering Lifecycle Management
- Engineering Requirements Management DOORS
- Engineering Systems Design Rhapsody
- IBM Engineering Lifecycle Optimization Publishing
- Engineering Method Composer
- Engineering Integration Hub
Reporting
- JRS Reporting
- You can now use JRS reporting with RMM 7.0.3. For more information, see Reporting with Jazz Reporting Service.
Simplified Linking for OSLC links
- Drag and drop
-
You can drag model elements from the Explorer or Properties editor view and drop them on the task editor/test case editor/artifacts editor to create OSLC links across IBM Engineering Lifecycle Management applications. Drag is supported in the following IBM Engineering Lifecycle Management applications: Engineering Workflow Management and DOORS Next
You can also drag artifacts from other applications to an Rhapsody Model Manager project area and then drop them to the Properties editor to create OSLC links. For more information, see Linking artifacts to requirements by using the drag-and-drop method.
- Copy and paste
-
You can use the Copy artifacts option from the Explorer or Properties editor view to copy the model element name, artifact link, and copy artifact URL. It copies the selected option to the clipboard and then you can click the Paste as link icon in another artifact of the other application to create an OSLC link. For more information, see Copying artifacts.
Server configuration
- Rhapsody version 10.0 and onwards has TLS 1.3 as a default TLS version
-
Rhapsody version 10.0 adopted Java version 17 in which the SSL protocols TLS versions 1.0 and 1.1 are disabled by default. If your Rhapsody Model Manager server is configured with TLS 1.0 or TLS 1.1, it must be updated to use TLS version 1.3 so that the Rhapsody client can connect to it. If you are using TLSv1.2 on server, setup your Rhapsody client to use TLS1.2. For more information about TLS 1.2 configuration, see Configuring Rhapsody to use the TLS v1.2 protocol.
- Rhapsody version 9.0.2 uses TLS 1.2 as a default TLS version
-
Rhapsody version 9.0.2 adopted Java version 8.0.7.20 in which the SSL protocols TLS versions 1.0 and 1.1 are disabled by default. If your Rhapsody Model Manager server is configured with TLS 1.0 or TLS 1.1, it must be updated to use TLS version 1.2 so that the Rhapsody client can connect to it. For more information about TLS 1.2 configuration, see Support for NIST SP 800-131.
Web UI
- Quick search
-
- Quick search for model elements by a partial or full name.
- Display architecture elements search result by exact matches or all possible matches.
- Filter architecture elements search results by type in the Quick Search bar from anywhere in the RMM web client.
- View quick search results in a table view on the main page.
For more information, see Searching for model elements
- Enhanced the sorting order of the elements in RMM web UI
-
RMM now lists the elements on the RMM web UI in the same order as on the Rhapsody client, instead of modifying the list in alphabetical or any other order. The consistency in the order of the element on both the Rhapsody client and the RMM web UI removes the confusion for the users.
- Display history of model elements
-
The Show History icon is added for all architecture elements. Now, you can click the Show History icon on the Properties editor to see all changes that are made to any model element.
- Copy artifacts link
-
You can copy links to artifacts across applications. You can copy the artifact URL as:
- Versioned URL,
- Concept URL or
- With configuration context
