Linked Repositories

Repositories can also be linked and have link relationships. The path of these multiple link relationship between repositories is used to control publication, customized import, customized exports and can be used for other purposes as well.

In a link relationship, one repository is the parent and other repository is the child. The linkage between repositories is created by joining one or more attributes from both repositories. The join attributes must be defined as part of the snapshot table in order to participate in the join. Once a link has been established, the link is available to be displayed as a link table in both parent and child repositories.
