Subject: RE: [sdd] [glossary] Initial vs. Default Configuration


Hi all,

 

I'm working with version 15 of the glossary, is that correct?  In that version the definition of Configuration differs slightly from the version below:

 

Configuration: "A specific set of values and state defining a given instance of a solution."

 

Did we agree to remove “and state” from the definition?

 

Regards,

Debra

At yesterday's concall, we agreed to have all three definitions in the

glossary.  The agreed upon definitions are:

 

Configuration: "A specific set of values defining a given instance of

a solution." (no change from current glossary)

 

Initial Configuration: "The configuration in effect when the system is first

deployed"

 

Default Configuration: "The configuration supplied by the solution provider"

 

Who has the glossary pen?  Whoever that is, please make these modifications

as soon as convenient.  Thanks!
