NOV-5 Operational activity hierarchy (UPDM - NAF aliases)
Creation
To create an NOV-5 Operational Activity Hierarchy:
• Right-click the
Architectural Description or
Service Description that is to own the NOV-5 Operational Activity Hierarchy, point to New, point to Diagram, point to NAF, and then click NOV-5 Operational Activity Hierarchy.
Purpose
On an NOV-5 Operational Activity Hierarchy:
• Create
Logical Architecture,
Node,
Security Domain,
Operational Activity,
Standard Operational Activity elements.
• ·
• Create
Operational Constraint elements and apply them to Node and Security Domain elements.
• Create
Service Policy elements and apply them to Logical Architecture, Node and Security Domain elements.
Diagram Elements
For information about showing compartments on diagram symbols, setting up default view options, and adding existing elements to the diagram, see the following topics:
For information about the creation and appearance of elements that can be shown on all Product diagrams (Alias, Definition, Information, Metadata, Overlap and Same As elements), see
Creation and appearance of elements that appear on all product diagrams (UPDM - NAF aliases).
Architectural Description
To create an

Architectural Description button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Architectural Description button, and then click in free space on the diagram.To populate elements from an Architectural Description: add the Architectural Description to the diagram, and then populate those elements from the Architectural Description.
Architectural Reference
To create an
Architectural Reference: click the 
Architectural Reference button, click the source Architectural Description, and then click the destination Architectural Description.
Architectural Reference button, click the source Architectural Description, and then click the destination Architectural Description.Architecture Metadata
To create an
Architecture Metadata: click the 
Architecture Metadata button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Architecture Metadata button, and then click in free space on the diagram.Define the text of the Architecture Metadata through its Full Text property.
To apply an Architecture Metadata to an Architectural Description: click the 
Note Link button, click the Architecture Metadata, and then click the Architectural Description to which the Architecture Metadata applies.
Note Link button, click the Architecture Metadata, and then click the Architectural Description to which the Architecture Metadata applies.Capability
To create a
Capability: click the 
Capability button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Capability button, and then click in free space on the diagram.Use Maps To Capability relationships to link the Capability to the Operational Activity and Standard Operational Activity elements that map to that Capability.
Is Capable Of Performing
To create an
Is Capable Of Performing: click the 
Is Capable Of Performing button, click the Node or Security Domain, and then click the Operational Activity or Standard Operational Activity that can be performed.
Is Capable Of Performing button, click the Node or Security Domain, and then click the Operational Activity or Standard Operational Activity that can be performed.Logical Architecture
To create a
Logical Architecture: click the 
Logical Architecture button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Logical Architecture button, and then click in free space on the diagram.Use Note Links to link the Logical Architecture to Service Policy elements that apply to the Logical Architecture.
Maps To Capability
To create a
Maps To Capability: click the 
Maps To Capability button, click the Operational Activity or Standard Operational Activity, and then click the Capability that is mapped to.
Maps To Capability button, click the Operational Activity or Standard Operational Activity, and then click the Capability that is mapped to.Node
Node button, and then click in free space on the diagram.Use Is Capable Of Performing relationships to link the Node to the Operational Activity and Standard Operational Activity elements that the Node can perform.
Operational Activity
To create an
Operational Activity: click the 
Operational Activity button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Operational Activity button, and then click in free space on the diagram.Use Operational Activity Action relationships to link the Operational Activity to the other Operational Activity and Standard Operational Activity elements that are invoked by the Operational Activity.
Operational Activity Action
To create an
Operational Activity Action: click the 
Operational Activity Action button, click the source Operational Activity or Standard Operational Activity, and then click the destination Operational Activity or Standard Operational Activity.
Operational Activity Action button, click the source Operational Activity or Standard Operational Activity, and then click the destination Operational Activity or Standard Operational Activity.Operational Constraint
To create an
Operational Constraint: click the 
Operational Constraint button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Operational Constraint button, and then click in free space on the diagram.To apply an Operational Constraint to a Node, Operational Activity or Standard Operational Activity on the diagram: click the Note Link button, click the Operational Constraint, and then click the Node, Operational Activity or Standard Operational Activity to which the Operational Constraint applies.
Note Link button, click the Operational Constraint, and then click the Node, Operational Activity or Standard Operational Activity to which the Operational Constraint applies.Security Domain
To create a
Security Domain: click the 
Security Domain button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Security Domain button, and then click in free space on the diagram.Use Is Capable Of Performing relationships to link the Security Domain to the Operational Activity and Standard Operational Activity elements that the Security Domain can perform.
Service Policy
To create a
Service Policy: click the 
Service Policy button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Service Policy button, and then click in free space on the diagram.To apply a Service Policy to a Logical Architecture or Node on the diagram: click the Note Link button, click the Service Policy, and then click the Logical Architecture or Node to which the Service Policy applies.
Note Link button, click the Service Policy, and then click the Logical Architecture or Node to which the Service Policy applies.Standard Operational Activity
To create a
Standard Operational Activity: click the 
Standard Operational Activity button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Standard Operational Activity button, and then click in free space on the diagram.Use Operational Activity Action relationships to link the Standard Operational Activity to the other Standard Operational Activity and Operational Activity elements that are invoked by the Standard Operational Activity.
