Prism Ruleset Files

Prism allows you to set Installation Rules on Packages and define Configuration Groups based on rules you define. After defining a Rule, you can save the rule definition as a *.RULESET file to be shared among other Packages or Configuration Groups.

Where are Rules Defined?

• User-defined Configuration Groups in the Prism Deployment Console (Prism Deploy only).
• Prism’s Package Editor: Package Properties | Requirements | Installation Rules.

To Save a Ruleset file:

1. Create a User-defined Configuration Group or Package Installation Rule.

2. In the Edit Rule window, select Save Rule.

3. Give the rule a descriptive name. The rule is saved with the extension *.RULESET.

To Load a Ruleset file:

1. Create or edit a User-defined Configuration Group or Package Installation Rule.

2. Select the button Go to Editor to open the Edit Rule window.

3. Select Load Rule and browse to the saved *.RULESET file.

Hints:

• You can rename a Configuration Group by right-clicking to open a drop-down menu and selecting Rename.

• Saved RULESETS from Installation Rules can be loaded in a Configuration Group and vice versa.
