Activating Lifecycle Model
Pre-requisites:
To activate an organization-specific lifecycle model information, you must have the Manage Lifecycle Models permission for the organization.
To activate a system-wide lifecycle model, you must have the Modify Assets permission for all organizations that own the lifecycle model's assigned asset types. This is because when a system-wide lifecycle model is activated, assets of its assigned asset types from all organizations is set to the initial state of the lifecycle model and this requires the modify permission for the assets.
Lifecycle models can be applied not only to assets but also to other lifecycle models. CentraSite provides a default lifecycle model that is applied automatically to all user-defined lifecycle models. This default lifecycle model defines the following states:
State
Description
New
A user-defined lifecycle model has been saved but is not yet been activated for use with its associated asset types.
Productive
A user-defined lifecycle model has been activated for use with its associated asset types. The lifecycle status of assets of the associated asset types is visible in the detail view of the asset instances.
Retired
The lifecycle model is no longer in use and cannot be reactivated.
The following general guidelines apply when activating a lifecycle model:
*When you create a user-defined lifecycle model and assign it to one or more asset types, the lifecycle model is initially inactive (that is, in the New state).. CentraSite does not begin enforcing a new lifecycle model until you activate the model by switching it to the Productive state.
*After you activate a lifecycle model (that is, place it in the Productive state), that lifecycle model can no longer be modified. To make changes to the lifecycle model, you must create a new version of the model and make your changes to the new version.
*You cannot activate a lifecycle model that is currently in the Retired state. To activate a lifecycle model in the Retired state, you must create a new version of the lifecycle model.
* To activate a lifecycle model
