How to transfer existing RSA models (managed by SVN) to Jazz Design Manager (in managed mode) to be managed there
Accepted answer
Hi Martin,
What do you mean by working in "Managed mode"? It is 'Managed externally using import definition' or 'Actively managed by Design Manager' (see : Specifying the data magement mode and Creating design project areas)?
In a nutshell...,
For the 'Managed externally using import definition' project areas, you would need to use the import engine to import the RSA models into the Design Manager (DM) repository. If you want to continue using the traditional RSA modeling with your SVN repository you would use the import engine to import new changes to your model into the DM repository (see: Sharing Rational Software Architect models).
For the' Actively managed by Design Manager' project areas, you would need to use the RSA DM Client Extension to upload your RSA projects into your DM repository. Once the models are in the DM repository, you will be able to edit (create or update) your RSA models directory in the DM repository.
Finally, 'Managed externally using import definition' mode project areas can be switched to Actively managed by Design Manager' mode (contrary is not possible). So once you have initially imported your models, in the DM repository, using the import Engine, you can switch to actively managed mode to continue your modeling directly on the DM repository.
I hope that will give you an overview of what is possible.

François
