Resource constraint (UPDM - NAF aliases)

Creation

To create a Resource Constraint:

• From an Architectural Description, Physical Data Model or Service Description: right-click the Architectural Description or Service Description, point to New, point to NAF, point to System, and then click Resource Constraint.

• From a Capability Configuration, Energy, Entity Item, Exchange Element, Function, Geo Political Extent Type, Materiel, Node, Organization, Physical Architecture, Post, Resource Artifact, Responsibility, Security Domain, Service Access and Software: right-click the element, point to New, point to NAF, and then click Resource Constraint.

• From an NSV-1 Resource Specification, NSV-1 Resource Interaction Specification, NSV-2 System Communications Description, NSV-4 Functionality Description, NSV-4 Functionality Hierarchy, NSV-5 Function to Operational Activity/Service Function Definition, NSV-9 Technology and Skills Forecast Definition, NSV-10c Resource Event-Trace Description or NSV-11 System Data Model: click the

Resource Constraint toolbar button, and then click in free space on the diagram.

After creating a Resource Constraint, use the Full Text property to specify the text of that Resource Constraint.

Applying to elements

When you create a Resource Constraint it is applied to the owning element, unless the owning element is an Architectural Description, Physical Data Model or Service Description. You can apply a Resource Constraint to many elements.

To apply a Resource Constraint to an element:

• From an appropriate diagram: click the

Note Link toolbar button, click the Resource Constraint, and then click the element to which the Resource Constraint applies.

• From an appropriate Modeler pane:

◦ Right-click the Resource Constraint, point to Links, and then click Resource Constrained Element. From the Links Editor, select the elements to which the Resource Constraint applies.

◦ Right-click the element, point to Links, point to Applied, and then click Resource Constraint. From the Links Editor, select the Resource Constraint elements that apply to the element.
