Reorganize databases

You can automatically delete ARIS object and connection definitions that do not have occurrences in any model in the database.

UML elements are generally not deleted during reorganization because even if they do not have any presentations in a diagram, they are still contained in the relevant UML object structure.

Prerequisites

You have the Database management function privilege.

Warning

If you are using an object library, you should reorganize databases only when each object definition occurs in at least one overview model. If elements have already been created for later use but do not yet occur in models, these elements are deleted during the consolidation.

Procedure. Procedure

  1. Click ARIS > Explorer Explorer. The Explorer tab opens.

  2. Click Navigation Navigation in the bar panel if the Navigation bar is not activated yet.

  3. Log in to the database.

  4. Right-click the database, and select Reorganize Reorganize.

The database reorganization is started. Unused object and connection definitions are deleted.

Optionally, the list of deleted items is displayed.
