Cameo DataHub
Plugin 19.0 SP1 |
|
DataHub is a MagicDraw® plugin which provides a complete solution for
requirements management.
DataHub can connect to and work with IBM Rational® DOORS®, IBM Rational®
DOORS® Next Generation, HP Application Lifecycle Management tools,
and any OSLC-clipliant providers.
The DataHub plugin enables you to copy and synchronize requirements, link
them to one another, as well as link MagicDraw’s model elements such as SysML
Requirements or Use Cases. It allows you to create DHLink, and DHTrace links
between requirements and SysML use cases and test cases and makes it possible to
maintain these links or relations, and update them using bidirectional or
unidirectional synchronization capabilities, thereby validating a requirement.
Additionally, you could also transfer requirements to and from CSV file
repositories.
Cameo DataHub uses OSLC (Open Services for Lifecycle
Collaboration) specifications for data integration and tools collaboration.
OSLC is an open community developing a set of specifications for
integrating tools. OSLC enables independent software and product lifecycle tools
to interact and integrate their requirements via links between related
resources. OSLC queries are supported only by IBM Rational DOORS Next
Generation, while OSLC links are supported by IBM Rational DOORS Next Generation
as well as HP Application Lifecycle Management (only Requirement and Defect
elements).
DataHub supports almost all types of MagicDraw® model elements and
diagrams.
DataHub Plugin works with the following requirements management systems:
- MagicDraw (MagicDraw® with SysML, and UPDM Plugin 19.0)
- IBM® Rational® DOORS® (8.0, 8.1, 8.2, 8.3, 9.0, 9.1, 9.2, 9.3, 9.4,
9.5, and 9.6)
- IBM® Rational® DOORS® Next Generation 4.x, 5.x, and
up to 6.0.5
- HP Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) 12.x
- Any OSLC-compliant providers
- CSV files

Frequently Asked Questions
Please visit our website for FAQ at
http://www.nomagic.com/support/faq.html.
- Removing the 'Used project'
- DataHub may not work properly when remove
the 'used project' that contains profiles. To
avoid the problem, restart MagicDraw after
removing the 'used project' before continue the
work with DataHub.
- Synchronization
- Synchronization will not recreate an element, if
the root node from which it is to be synchronized from is removed. [DH-10149]
- DataHub cannot work with an element without "read"
permission. So the synchronization will be deleted as well. [DH-5004]
- DataHub cannot detect 3rd party tools, if it is run by
a different user account than MagicDraw. [DH-10037]
To support special characters or accented letters:
- Edit the file <MagicDraw>/bin/magicdraw.properties
- Append "-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8" for JAVA_ARGS
value.
Text formatting is incompatible
between tools:
- From DOORS Next Generation and HP ALM, MagicDraw will ignore hyperlink, line break, superscript, subscript, and strike-through
formatting.
- From MagicDraw, DataHub cannot synchronize to DOORS Next Generation if data contains image, alignment, line break, and strike-through
formatting.
- Rational DOORS Next Generation-related:
- The pre-mapping between MagicDraw and DOORS
Next Generation is not set as default in order to avoid the exporting problem to
DOORS Next Generation. [DH-9710].
- DataHub cannot track DOORS NG links, if Source nodes were imported
followed by Target nodes.
However, the synchronization process will be able to discover these
links. [DH-10290]
- Unable to work with Collection and Module [DH-10626].
- Unable to show a Review Node in the explorer
[DH-9584].
- Unable to delete an uploaded Artifact
[DH-9581].
- Unable to rename a folder [DH-9579].
- Unable to delete any link (DOORS Next Generation 4.x) [DH-9672].
- Unable to edit custom link (DOORS Next Generation 4.x) [DH-9671].
- Synchronize cannot identify read-only or locked nodes, so synchronization will complete without errors, but data will not be updated. [DH-9582, DH-9440].
- HP Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) related:
- HP ALM does not have "in-coming" links for Defect
elements. In HP, regardless of how you create the link,
Defect nodes can only link to other elements as an
"out-going" link. So, if you create an "in-coming" link for
a Defect element (in MD) and sync it back into HP, it will
be ignored.
- In HP ALM, a Requirement Trace can only link two
requirement nodes. If a Trace is created between a
requirement and a non-requirement element (such as Defect,
or Test) in MagicDraw, it will be ignored by DataHub
synchronization.
- HP ALM does not have a folder in the
Defect section. So, if you synchronize a Package from
MagicDraw, it will not be created into HP ALM. Though the
Defect under those package will be arranged into a proper
location in HP ALM, but the link will be lost. (Condition
when Defect paging size is set)

Evaluation
version limitations
|
If MagicDraw client has no expiration date, plugin evaluation version
will be working for 7 days period after first installation.
If MagicDraw client has an expiration date, plugin evaluation version
will be working until MagicDraw client version is expired.
IMPORTANT!
Remember that plugin
evaluation version depends on MagicDraw version. If you have MagicDraw
demo version then you are allowed to save only a limited number of
elements.
Contact your sales executive individually for the fully functional
evaluation version.
Synchronization problems occur after exporting a package to create a module.
If you want to export part of a model as a module in DataHub, you
need to restart your project to avoid the problems.
Problems with committing a project when it uses read-only modules.
When using a shared module in the project, you can select whether you want to
use it as read-only or read-write-enable. You need the read-write permission to commit your work into the Teamwork
Server or else you will lose the committed work.
