About this task
When you edit an algorithm you can add components, edit component properties, connect components to define their relationship, or delete components. Consider the following key factors when editing an algorithm:
- Multiple algorithms from multiple projects can be open for editing simultaneously.
- Available algorithm components are listed in the Palette window, and the components already part of the algorithm configuration are displayed as icons in the editor.
- Algorithms are edited locally so that no changes are made to the database until they have been validated for integrity.
- Algorithms must be saved and deployed before they are updated in the Hub database.
If the algorithm is changed after running Generate Threshold Analysis Pairs, you can rescore the sample pairs by using the menu. Refer to Rescoring members in sample pair files.
To edit an algorithm:
Procedure
- Connect to a Hub to retrieve the desired algorithms. See Loading an algorithm for more information.
- Once imported into IBM® Initiate® Workbench, algorithms are listed in the Navigator, grouped by entity type.
- Double-click the algorithm name to open the algorithm for editing in the Algorithms tab of the Configuration Editor. The available algorithm components are listed in the Palette, and the algorithm configuration is represented by icons and connectors in the editor. The solid lines define the connections between components, and the dotted lines separate the components by type.
