Help.
Starting ConflictManager
To start ConflictManager
1. In Wise Package Studio, do one of the following:
On the Projects tab, click the Run link to the right of the task or tool associated
with ConflictManager.
On the Tools tab, double-click ConflictManager.
2. If the database contains packages but conflicts have not been detected yet, the
Detect Conflicts dialog box appears. If you previously were working in multiple
databases, a message appears listing the databases requiring conflict detection.
To detect conflicts, select applications and click OK.
See
Detecting Conflicts
on page 30.
To start ConflictManager without detecting conflicts, click Cancel.
Which Database is Opened?
The first time you start ConflictManager, it opens the Software Manager database that
you connected to during installation. Thereafter, ConflictManager opens the database
most recently used by either Software Manager or ConflictManager. With Enterprise
Management Server, multiple databases might open.
When you start ConflictManager from a task that specifies the database in its command-
line options, the specified database is opened.
If ConflictManager cannot find the default Software Manager database, the Database
Setup wizard starts. Do the following:
z
If the Applications in Use dialog box appears, close the applications listed, close
ConflictManager, and click Next.
z
On the Share Point Directory page, specify the share point you are using and click
Next. Then set up the database as described in Setting Up Database Connections
and Authentication in the Getting Started Guide.
Opening and Closing Software Manager Databases
¾
Enterprise Management Server only.
You can open multiple Software Manager databases simultaneously. This lets you browse
multiple databases in Software Manager and ConflictManager, and work in a second
database without closing the first one.
One database must always be open in ConflictManager.
To open an additional database
1. If the database does not exist, create a new database and then create an ODBC
DSN entry. See Creating Software Manager Databases in the Getting Started Guide.
2. Select File menu > Open Database.
