From the Select Type dialog, create or select the Service Interface that is the type of the Request, or create an untyped Request.If the owner of the NSV-1 Resource Interaction Specification is not shown on the diagram, create a Request on the diagram owner by clicking in free space.
• From an appropriate Modeler pane, locate the Service Interface that you want to use as the type of the Request, and then drag that Service Interface to the edge of the diagram owner or Resource Role element on the diagram. From the dialog, select Request, and then click OK.
If the owner of the NSV-1 Resource Interaction Specification is not shown on the diagram, create a Request on the diagram owner by dragging the Service Interface to free space.
The diagram owner can be a Capability Configuration, Organization, Physical Architecture, Post, Resource Artifact, Responsibility, Service Access or Software element.
When you create an NSV-1 Resource Interaction Specification from a Resource Artifact, Modeler does not add the owning Resource Artifact to the diagram.
To show the owning Resource Artifact on the diagram: right-click the background of the diagram, point to Populate, and then click Owner.
To create a Resource Constraint: click the 
Resource Constraint button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Resource Constraint button, and then click in free space on the diagram.To apply a Resource Constraint to an element on the diagram: click the 
Note Link button, click the Resource Constraint, and then click the element to which the Resource Constraint applies.
Note Link button, click the Resource Constraint, and then click the element to which the Resource Constraint applies.You can apply a Resource Constraint to Capability Configuration, Organization, Physical Architecture, Post, Resource Artifact, Responsibility, Service Access or Software elements.
To create a Resource Interaction:
• Click the 
Resource Interaction button, and then click the Resource Interface that realizes the Resource Interaction.
On the Select Conveyed Classifier dialog, create or select the element that is the Resource Interaction element's conveyed classifier.
From the context menu, click either command for the destination element.
To define that a Resource Interaction is realized by a Resource Interface:
• Drag the Resource Interaction from a Modeler pane to the Resource Interface on the diagram.
• Drag the Resource Interaction element's conveyed classifier from a Modeler pane to the Resource Interface on the diagram. On the Select Resource Interaction dialog, select the Resource Interaction.
