Problem domain (UPDM - DoDAF aliases)
Creation
To create a Problem Domain:
From an Operational Context: right-click the Operational Context, point to New, point to DoDAF, and then click Problem Domain.
On the Select Type dialog, create or select the Performer (Operational) or Security Domain to use as a type.
From an OV-2 Operational Resource Definition: click the Problem Domain toolbar button, and then click the owning Operational Context.
On the Select Type dialog, create or select the Performer (Operational) or Security Domain to use as a type, or create an untyped Problem Domain, or create an untyped Problem Domain.
From an OV-2 Operational Resource Flow Description:
Click the Problem Domain toolbar button, and then click the Operational Context element that is to own the Problem Domain. On the Select Type dialog, create or select the Performer (Operational) or Security Domain that is the type of the Problem Domain, or create an untyped Problem Domain.
If the owner of the OV-2 Operational Resource Flow Description is not shown on the diagram, create a Problem Domain on the diagram owner by clicking in free space.
From an appropriate Modeler pane, locate the Performer (Operational) or Security Domain that you want to use as the type of the Problem Domain, and then drag that Performer (Operational) or Security Domain to the owning Operational Context element on the diagram. From the dialog, select Problem Domain, and then click OK.
If the owner of the OV-2 Operational Resource Flow Description is not shown on the diagram, create a Problem Domain on the diagram owner by dragging the type to free space.
From an OV-6c Operational Event-Trace Description:
Click the Problem Domain toolbar button, and then click in free space on the diagram. From the Select Type dialog, create or select the Performer (Operational) or Security Domain to use as a type for the Problem Domain you are creating, or create an untyped Problem Domain.
From a Modeler pane, locate the Performer (Operational) or Security Domain that is to be the type of the Problem Domain you are creating, and then drag that element to the diagram. From the dialog that appears, select Problem Domain, and then click OK.
Problem Domain elements can be created only on OV-6c Operational Event-Trace Description diagrams that are Operational Context owned.
Appearance
When shown on an OV-2 Operational Resource Definition, a Problem Domain appears as follows:
When shown on an OV-2 Operational Resource Flow Description, a Problem Domain appears as follows:

Relationships
The following relationships are of importance to a Problem Domain:
Needline relationships link a Problem Domain to Known Resource, Performer Port, Performer Role, and Problem Domain elements.
The following sections provide information about how a Problem Domain is used in the model.
