Use case
[Name each use case that you include below.]
Editing an SMP Computer Resource
If a Computer resource needs to be edited, a "Get Resource for SMP" component can be used in conjunction with a "Save Resource for SMP" to do so. Using a web form, a user can select from a list of machines in the SMP. After clicking a button, the "Get" component can get the SMP data for that computer and return it in the proper format. This SMP computer data can then be presented to the user on a form for editing. After clicking a "Save" button, the "Save Resource for SMP" component can be utilized to save the edits the user made on the form back to the SMP computer record.
