Subsystem component execution settings

A subsystem component references another system that you have defined. As such, a subsystem is an executable unit. You use the IFD to specify the execution settings of subsystem components. Because the IFD treats each subsystem component as a unique instance, these execution settings are maintained separately with each component.

A subsystem component has a defined set of interfaces based on the sources and targets of the various maps that it contains. The inputs and outputs of a subsystem are derived according to the following rules:

• An input of a subsystem is a source that is not internally produced by one of its components.
• An output of a subsystem is a target that is internally produced by one of its components, and is not deleted.

You define execution settings for each subsystem component in your system by accessing the Launcher Settings window. To display the Launcher Settings window in the IFD, click the Execution Settings button of the subsystem component icon with the assigned server displayed.

You can also access this window by selecting the Edit Execution Settings command from the context menu for a subsystem component.
