pmm_updps -u=<username> -p=<password> -g=<group> -item_id=<Top-nodes-ItemID>

Results

A solve query is sent to PMM, PMM performs a partial solve, and a BVR is generated for selected nodes. Information related to part, LOU, and solution is fetched. Associated designs are searched for in Teamcenter. If found, they are associated with the selected nodes.
