Resource manager

Important

Enterprise Edition only

The Knowage Community Edition only allows the management of the models folder, in order to define metadata for data mining analysis. The Knowage Enterprise Edition allows the management of all the Knowage installation resources.

The Resource Manager functionality available under the TOOLS section of the Knowage main menu, allows the management of all files within the Resources folder of the Knowage installation.
