Deployment

Deploy ACA for the First Time

Before You Begin

The following tables outline the steps that you must complete to upgrade this module to V4.3.1.0.0. These instructions assume that you have completed the steps for upgrading the basic GE Digital APM system architecture.

These tasks may be completed by multiple people in your organization. We recommend, however, that the tasks be completed in the order in which they are listed.

Results

StepTaskNotes
1Assign Security Users to one or more of the ACA Security Groups and Roles.This step is required.
2Review the ACA data model to determine which relationship definitions you will need to modify to include your custom equipment and location families. Via Configuration Manager, modify the relationship definitions as needed. This step is required only if you store equipment and location information in families other than the baseline Equipment and Functional Location families.
3Optional: Configure Criticality Definition records to use a Checklist as the Criticality Assessment method instead of the Risk Matrix.To configure to use a Checklist, select the Use Checklist field and select the desired family from the Checklist Family field. To associate a Criticality Definition record with a Site, link the Criticality Definition record to a Site Reference record. The Criticality Checklist family datasheet and Before Insert Family Policy can be configured to implement the desired assessment input fields and criticality value calculation logic.

    • When upgrading to 4.3.0.7.0, all existing Asset Criticality Analysis Systems are now displayed in the list of Asset Criticality Analyses.
    • When upgrading to 4.3.0.7.0, the Team Members and Reference Documents of existing Asset Criticality Analysis records will be transferred to the associated records in the Asset Criticality Analysis System family.
    • When upgrading to 4.3.0.7.0, the State of existing Asset Criticality Analysis records will be transferred to the child records in the Asset Criticality Analysis System family. The States for Asset Criticality Analyses will be upgraded from:
      • Complete to Approved
      • Pending Approval to Pending Approval
      • Al other States will be upgraded to In Progress
    • When upgrading to 4.3.0.7.0, State Management roles need to be configured for the Asset Criticality Analysis System family.
    • When upgrading to 4.3.0.7.0, corresponding Criticality Definition and Criticality Threshold records will be created from existing Risk Matrix records.

ACA Security Groups

The following table lists the baseline Security Groups available for users within this module, as well as the baseline Roles to which those Security Groups are assigned.

Important: Assigning a Security User to a Role grants that user the privileges associated with all of the Security Groups that are assigned to that Role. To avoid granting a Security User unintended privileges, before assigning a Security User to a Role, be sure to review all of the privileges associated with the Security Groups assigned to that Role. Also, be aware that additional Roles, as well as Security Groups assigned to existing Roles, can be added via Security Manager.
