Creating personal repositories

QMF users can create their own personal repositories. Personal repositories are local to the individual user and are generally only used by that individual. Administrators can also create personal repositories on behalf of a user.

About this task

Personal repositories serve a single user and are stored in the personal settings directory of the workstation (server) that is running the QMF application interface.

Personal repositories do not support any of the extended features of repositories such as security.

To create a personal repository, perform the following procedure:

Procedure

  1. Select File > New > Other . Expand the Repository folder, select Personal Repository and click Next.
    The Create New Personal Repository window opens.
  2. Specify the name for the repository in the Name field.
  3. Optionally, you can specify a comment that describes the repository in the Comment field.
  4. To connect to the repository immediately, select the Connect immediately check box.
  5. Click Finish. The personal repository is created and saved in the workstation's personal settings directory. Each user is responsible for populating their personal repository. You can save objects in your personal repository.
