PTC System Monitor

≪ Previous: Windchill Migration services?

Hi,

I am new to PTC System monitor. I installed PTC System monitor and able to configure it successfully and getting all dashboard. I have a query, can I get report/dashboard that shows comparison. let say I want to compare Av. response time of "Windchill Folder browsing" before and after some customization deployed.

My problem is, if I am adding same dashlet 2 times with different time frame as filter in a dashboard, it is very hard to compare on graph due to different time frame and graph showing older time frame, starts capturing current data also.

My objective is that I should able to store a data as baseline and later i can compare it with current data. if it is in single graph it will be great.

is it possible with PSM?

Can any one guide me?

Thanks

Windchill and Family Tables

≪ Previous: PTC System Monitor

Hi Folks,

today I would like to start a short discussion about Family Table models (standard parts) used in Windchill.

What is your experience? Do you use Family Table models for standard parts in Windchill? ... or do you use only separated objects (one model per one material number)?

I do not want to speak about 5 instances in Generic models - I mean >> from 200 to 500 instances per one Generic part - For example Screw with Hexagon head.

How to manage this huge Generic model and how to add new instance, set state for new object and update existing parts in different workspaces.

I waiting for your positive or negative answers.

Thanks for your comments and ideas.

Best Regards,

Vladimir

We are working on a setup of Windchill to support collaboration with customers and suppliers. To share data we would like to use data packages containing only viewables and not the native documents. We are not able to find a way to apply package filters to select only these viewable.

Who has experience solving this issue? Please reply.

≪ Previous: Create Data Package containing only viewables

We have to assess our Winchill Infrastructure annually against Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs) issued by IASE.

These are required to be assessed annually by some of our customers.

One aspect is the need to Encrypting data at rest in the ORACLE database and also data in transit when transmitted between the Application server and Oracle.

Does anyone in the community (PTC or other Customers) know if this is supported and can point me in the right direction with respect to system configuration.

Thanks in Advance

How to make a new Life Cycle State

May 1, 2016, 10:10 pm

≫ Next: How to create Standard Attributes

≪ Previous: Part and Cad Document are out of date

1. System Environment

Both English language pack (default language) and Korean language pack are installed on my Windchill (i.e., Windchill 10.2 M030).

Make a directory folders for life cycle state.

I made a directory (\wtCustom\wt\lifecycle). Then put the folders under the Windchill home directory (%WT_HOME%).

Here is the Windchill Custom Life Cycle directory: %WT_HOME%\wtCustom\wt\lifecycle\

2. StateRB.rbinfo

Make a StateRB.rbinfo (File Extension: rbinfo) file for English language pack

Example: E:\ptc\Windchill_10.2\Windchill\wtCustom\wt\lifecycle\StateRB.rbInfo

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ResourceInfo.class=wt.tools.resource.EnumResourceInfo

ResourceInfo.customizable=true

ResourceInfo.deprecated=false

ResourceInfo.replacement=false

# Entry Contents

TOYOTA_MISSION_COMPLETED.value.value=Mission Completed

TOYOTA_MISSION_COMPLETED.shortDescription=Mission Completed

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note: If French language pack is installed, you need to save a file as StateRB_fr.rbInfo

Please check the following information for your reference: [java] Process Locales = en_US,en_GB,es,fr,de,ja,it,ko,ru,zh_CN,zh_TW,pt_BR

Well, I installed Korean language pack on Windchill. Therefore, I made a StateRB_ko.rbInfo file for Korean language pack

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ResourceInfo.class=wt.tools.resource.EnumResourceInfo

ResourceInfo.customizable=true

ResourceInfo.deprecated=false

# Entry Contents

TOYOTA_MISSION_COMPLETED.value=임무 완료

TOYOTA_MISSION_COMPLETED.shortDescription=임무 완료

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3. Resource Build

Execute the following command on Windchill Shell: ResourceBuild wt.lifecycle.** true

4. Ant Build

Execute the following command on Windchill Shell: ant -f codebase\makejar.xml

After completing build, check whether a new state is created correctly. Yay! Mission is completed.

How to create Standard Attributes

May 1, 2016, 7:24 pm

≫ Next: why do you need a team template for a document/part

≪ Previous: How to make a new Life Cycle State

Unlike global attributes, you need to add columns in table in Windchill Database for standard attributes.

You don’t need to execute a query manually in order to add columns; there is a utility to create columns: AddColumns.

Execute the following command on Windchill Shell: AddColumns <Windchill Type> <Primitive Data Types>=<Number of Columns>

Example:

1. AddColumns wt.part.WTPart String=1

2. AddColumns wt.doc.WTDocument Long=3

As you can see the image below, the new column for String is created in wcadmin.WTDocument Table.

Multi Object in PDMLink

≪ Previous: why do you need a team template for a document/part

Hi all,

I was told that Windchill 10.2 M030 or Windchill 11.0 will bring in this new Type called as "Multi Object" that is similar to the one in FlexPLM for having a custom multi object attribute, for eg., a Supplier Contact can have several attributes grouped under a "Multi Object Attribute" called as Supplier Contact.

This is a very useful functionality in Flexplm, but this is missed out in PDMLink, or do we have it now in Windchill 11?

Anyone feel the same thing?

My company is in PDMLink 10.2.

Best Regards

Hari

≪ Previous: Project resources report in Query Builder

Good Morning all,

I have been asked to research and test the Change Notice/Activity revision capabilities in the Windchill system.
I'm currently running 10.1 M030, and have the CN/CA revisions working as expected on my test machines.

My question is: Who out there is currently using this capability in a production environment, and if you could share your business case for using it in this manner.

In my case, I'm being asked to create a single CN/CA workflow that will promote the documents on it to three different release states by revising the CN/CA for each promotion to the different release states (prototype, pre-production, production).
I'm just looking for some good reasons to structure it this way, instead of creating separate CNs for each release state change.

Thanks in advance for any insight you can share on this subject.

Change publish recipe per object state

June 25, 2015, 5:05 am

≫ Next: Is there any impact on the output when we run multiple WinDU session simultaneously on a single Method Server?

≪ Previous: How to fetch the subtypes of Project in ProjectLink?

Currently we are always publishing to PLT's, which is great for markups and coordination. However, for our 'released' parts we would like to also publish a PDF of the cad drawing, and possibly a STP file for the cad part. I cannot seem to find a simple way to enable this functionality. The only thing I have found is making a some custom filters that push certain publish jobs to certain queues based on the state of the object being published. Specifically https://support.ptc.com/appserver/cs/view/solution.jsp?n=CS132318 seems like it is close, but needs to be customized to arrange by lifecycle state rather than document type.

Have others implemented something similar? Or am I missing something much easier to implement/maintain?

Thanks, Max

We're starting to use the Windows explorer integration of DTI and several users find this much more user friendly than the web interface. However, we'd like to know if it's possible to configure DTI to show only the latest versions in Explorer as opposed to the default behavior which is to show all versions.

Questions about migrating from Oracle 11g Enterprise to Standard

≫ Next: Partial AD configuration with Apache Windchill 10.2 M020

≪ Previous: Windchill/PDMLink Listener For EPMDocuments Set State to Released

Hello everyone,

Recently I was tasked with being the admin for the Oracle database we run along side our windchill 10.1 solution. It was recently discussed that we may need to migrate the database from enterprise to standard. From what I have found so far we will need to export our data, install a new standard database, then import the data into the new database. It isn't certain if we are going to go this route but to help decide we need to know what the procedure would be to connect our windchill system to a new database. I haven't had any luck finding documentation regarding this. I am hoping someone in the community could help point me in the correct direction.

Thanks in advance!
