Obtaining Initial Baseline

Aras uses a Baseline as a database and Code Tree backup. When the project starts, Aras initializes the SDE with the current release of Aras Innovator and provides the corresponding Baseline in the Baseline feeds in the Artifacts.

Projects periodically generate new Baselines, which may be created at the start of a project to add applications and language packs.

The following steps outline the process to obtain the initial Baseline:

  1. Create a folder to save the Baseline in the local machine. For example, C:\ArasProjects\Baselines\Cleaninnovatorxxspyy.
  1. From Azure DevOps, select Artifacts.

  1. Select Baselines from the drop-down menu.

  1. Select the available Baseline(s) for the Aras Innovator release.

Aras provides the CleanInnovatorxxSPyy Baseline for every new SDE. When selecting the Baseline(s), the command line for downloading appears.

  1. Run Windows PowerShell as an administrator.

  1. Run command: az login

  1. Run the command to access the newly created folder in step 1:
    cd C:\ArasProjects\Baselines\Cleaninnovator14sp3
  2. Copy the command from Azure DevOps to download the Baseline and run the command in Windows PowerShell.

The following files are visible in the newly created folder when the download is complete.
