The catalogs collection

The catalogs collection in the Repository holds two catalog files that serve to point to, or integrate the DTDs and associated files that are used to validate your DITA content, specializations, and configuration.

The files are explained in the following sections.

catalog-cms-system.xml

This catalog contains a series of pointers to the DTD files that validate their corresponding system configuration files, in the Repository/system/conf collection. This catalog essentially enables the IXIA CCMS to validate its own configuration.

catalog-cms-system-drm.xml

Additional catalog for the IXIA Dynamic Release Management module. This catalog contains a series of pointers to the DTD files specific to IXIA Dynamic Release Management.

master-catalog.xml

The root-catalog that Oxygen points to (in the Oxygen Catalog preferences) points to the master-catalog. The master-catalog in turn points to other catalogs, like those for plugins. If your company has its own specializations or DITA plugins, you must reference them in the master-catalog to integrated them.

Out of the box, the master-catalog points to the following catalogs:

  • ../dtd/catalog-dita.xml (DITA 1.2)

    This is the catalog found in Repository/system/dtd. It is the central catalog for the OASIS DITA 1.2 DTDs.
