Abstract
A repository has a database containing a number of artifacts storing data and a system device model defining various entities, including the artifacts and properties used in the artifacts. To update a system device model in database an extension package is passed to the repository. Update software identifies differences introduced by the extension package that are only permitted if the data in the artifacts is compatible and updates the database if and only if the data and extension package are compatible.
