Utility Network Domains with "6" in the name - purpose?

Anonymous User

Hello! 

I have downloaded the Utility Network Foundation solution package and am wondering about the number 6 in some of the domain names. What is the purpose of this?

Here are some examples: 

Sewer_6_AssociationStatus

Sewer_6_FeatureSourceID

Sewer_6_IsConnected

Sewer_6_IsContentVisible

Sewer_6_IsDeleted

 

Any insight is greatly appreciated!! Thank you

That is a system ID number for the UN and the associated db objects. Every time you create a new UN (Stage UN) in an enterprise GDB you will get a new ID number. It is for internal use by the esri tools that manage the UN.  I think it is also supposed to avoid name conflicts in the DB. If you have a large and mature EntGDB already and are adding the UN and all of its domains, you wouldn't want to get naming conflicts between the UN domains and any existing domains.
