Copying a system definition

You can add a system by copying an existing system definition. To add a new system definition using an existing system definition:

  1. Open the Add System Like dialog using one of the following methods:
    • In the navigation tree pane, right-click the name of the system whose system definition you want to copy, and select Add Like.

    • Select Tools > Systems Tool from the menu bar. Select the system definition that you want to copy, and click Add Like.

    The Add System Like dialog appears.

  2. In the Add System Like dialog:

    1. Specify a new name in the System Name field.

    2. Retain or modify the information specified in the fields of the selected system. For more information on the fields, see Adding a system.

      NOTE:

      If the data source that you specify already exists on the local system, the remaining fields are automatically loaded into this dialog.

    3. Click Add.

      The new system definition is added.
