Filter existing TMs to create golden TMs

Over time, TMs can grow considerably. You might decide that your current TM contains large number of unnecessary entries and filter out some of the entries to create a golden TM. Golden TMs (or reference TMs) are TMs with fully reviewed and reliable translations that you can use to leverage content.

Procedure

  1. In WorldServer, create an empty TM.
  2. Add a new TM sequence and do the following:
    1. In the Update TM list, select the empty TM that you have just created.
    2. Move the appropriate TMs from the Available TMs list to the TM Sequences list.
  3. Save the TM sequence.
  4. In the tm.properties file, set the save_ice_match_segments property to true.
    This ensures that all leveraged translations are stored in the updated TM.
  5. Stop WorldServer and start it again.
  6. Log in to WorldServer once again and assign the new TM group to the appropriate AIS path that contains the content which will populate the new TM.
  7. Create a project that leverages the content and stores only the translations that have been fully leveraged.
  8. Configure the AIS path to use only the new reference TM, not the sequence.
