This site will undergo a maintenance outage on Saturday, 13 September beginning at 2:30 AM Central/1 PM IST for a platform upgrade. The downtime will be ~three hours.

Writer instructions

Purpose

Use this page to display a banner announcement on each page of the space. Create the Space announcements page in the master space, outside of the Home branch.

You can version the Space announcements page to enable different banners to be published into different target spaces, however, the banner that is displayed in the versioned (master) space itself only displays the most recently-published banner.  If you find errors in the banner area of your versioned space and you are sure the Space announcements page is set up correctly, try publishing the page to the same space.

For more information, see Space-announcements-banners.

Removing

When an announcement is no longer needed, remove the BMC Space Banner macro.

Translation

Localized spaces using the L10n Viewport theme must change the name of this page to Space announcements l10n.  See Configuring-the-Scroll-ViewPort-theme-for-translated-spaces.

Usage

Choose one or none of the following BMC Space Banner macros.

If your space requires another kind of announcement, you can use this page in coordination with your team lead and editors.

When should I use a space announcement banner?

Use the space organization announcement after you change the content from a book-like organization (such as User Manual, Configuration Manual, and Administration Guide) to the product model.

Use the latest version announcement to push traffic to later versions. You do not need to add this to every previous version, but if you have a specific reason that you want users to be aware—for example, Google searches show content for an obsolete version—use the banner to help users find a relevant version.

When an announcement is no longer needed, remove the BMC Space Banner macro.

Space announcement This documentation space provides the same content as before, but the organization of the content has changed. The content is now organized based on logical branches instead of legacy book titles. We hope that the new structure will help you quickly find the content that you need.

Field Names and Descriptions

The following list describes the fields on this screen.

FIELD

DESCRIPTION

Disguise Extract File

Specify whether File-AID/RDX should disguise the extracted data as part of the extract batch job or not. When set to 1 (DCF) or 2 (DPR), all extracted objects which have disguise criteria defined in the Disguise Control file (DCF) or in the Dynamic Privacy Rules Project (DPR) will be disguised.

1

Use DCF. Disguise the extracted data using a disguise control file (DCF). This option requires installation of Compuware’s BMC Compuware File-AID/Data Solutions Release 3.5 or higher. Before submitting an extract request with the DCF data disguise option, you must have defined the disguise criteria using Option 5, Data Privacy (see Data Privacy).
When returning to the Extract Menu, the DISGUISED indicator in front of the extract file is displayed.

2

Use DPR. Disguise the extracted data using a Dynamic Privacy Rules Project (DPR). This option requires installation of Compuware’s BMC Compuware File-AID/Data Solutions and BMC Compuware File-AID Data Privacy. Before submitting an extract request with the DPR data privacy option, you must have defined the dynamic privacy rules (disguise criteria) using BMC Compuware File-AID Data Privacy. When returning to the Extract Menu, the DISGUISED indicator in front of the extract file is displayed.

Important

When disguising an extract with BMC Compuware File-AID Data Privacy defined Dynamic Privacy Rules (DPR), specify a region size large enough to run Java (REGION=0M is suggested, 200M is the minimum) in your jobcard.

3

No Disguise. The extracted data will not be disguised.

DCF: Disguise Control File

Specify the name of Disguise Control File that contains the disguise criteria for this extract. Disguise Control Files can be created in Option 6, RDX Utilities. The disguise criteria is specified using Option 5, Data Disguise.

DPR: Repository Name

Specify the name of the default Privacy Rules Repository. This option requires installation of Compuware’s BMC Compuware File-AID/Data Solutions and the BMC Compuware File-AID Data Privacy component of the BMC Compuware Topaz Workbench.
Specify the full repository name (up to 128 characters). Or enter an asterisk (*) by itself for a list of all repositories. Then select the desired repository from the list.

DPR: Project Name

Specify the name of the Dynamic Privacy Rules Project to be used with Disguise Extract File option 2 for this extract file. The Dynamic Privacy Rules Project keeps track of how to apply the privacy rules to which extracted data element. This option requires installation of Compuware’s BMC Compuware File-AID/Data Solutions and BMC Compuware File-AID Data Privacy.

Specify the full project name (up to 128 characters) or a pattern ending with an asterisk (*) for a list of matching projects. Asterisk (*) by itself lists all projects. Then select the desired project from the list.

Retain pre-disguise file

Specify whether or not to retain the extract work file before data is disguised. The extract work file is always masked to prevent access to the undisguised data.

The extract and the disguise are run as separate job steps. By saving the undisguised file you can rerun the disguise without having to rerun the extract. The disguise may need to be rerun because it failed due to an error in the disguise criteria, insufficient unique replacement values or because the disguise criteria did not produce the expected results. To rerun a failed disguise, use Option 5.2, “Disguise Existing Extract File”.

The name assigned to the pre-disguise extract file will use the standard RDX routine to generate a "temporary" name. The name will be the user PREFIX, the mid-level qualifier from the Profile, the word "EXTRACT" and finally the current date and time fields (i.e. D050128.T055709).

Create Audit Trail

Specify whether or not the BMC Compuware File-AID/Data Solutions disguise process should produce an audit trail report for each object whose data is subject to be disguised.

Audit Trail prefix

Specify the prefix for the BMC Compuware File-AID/Data Solutions audit trail reports for this extract. Prefix plus USERID can be up to 14 positions, the remainder of the data set name will follow the above mentioned naming convention. If prefix is blank, only the USERID will be used. Any value specified will be appended to the USERID. Precede the prefix value with a single quote (‘) to use the value without the USERID.
