There are two types of links supported by DataHub: DHLinks and DHTrace links. You can choose to copy data with DHLinks, with DHTrace links, or without any links.


To create a DHTrace link

  1. From the Operations drop-down list, select the Create DHTrace option.
  2. Drag a node, e.g., a DOORS or CSV Data Source, to the MagicDraw Containment tree.
  3. The Create DHTrace Summary dialog box opens to confirm the DHTrace link has been created.
