2.12.3 Archiving
When generating the archives, ADDM allocates an identification to the archives
and versions. These identifications are unique and unmistakable. This excludes the
possibility of confusing or mixing data.
In order to generate an archive, the desired machine or unit, subarea or area in the
left-hand window is simply selected in the ADDM directory tree. ADDM shows the
following dialog when Archive Functions → Archiving is selected:
The user must make an entry in the Comment field before the version is archived.
This is intended to require the user to enter a meaningful description of the version,
so that later it can be seen why the version was generated. However, ADDM does
not check the sense of the entry.
Note
Please note that ADDM compresses and may relocate the files when archiving.
Therefore the files to be archived must not be opened. This particularly applies to
STEP7 projects.
