This is installed with recent versions of TM1 and CX.
I'm not aware of any documentation covering it (I ought to be surprised

....).
Has anybody looked through it?

Well, lemmie see...
I've
run it.
I did note that the config file port number is 83333 while the supposed
valid range is from 5001 to 49151, so I thought that was a "good" start.
At least the object names don't use spaces, so that was good (in the non-sarcastic fashion).
Then I started looking at the TIs and everything I saw was done through the Map tabs. And I looked at the rules and saw the accursed word "Autogenerated, no, it'll work properly, really, trust us", and then I realised that the one technique that HAS been proven over the years is that you can't trust autogenerated code.
Then I stopped looking.

I may be wrong as I haven't looked at it in a while but think it was all created in performance modeller as a way of showing what metrics cubes are and so such.
So that would probably be why all the code was auto-generated; think we all know by now to never mistake any of the sample models with "best practice"... if such a thing actually exists in the TM1 world.

I've found out a bit more - it is indeed Model
ler-based. If you run PM up you see this:

But surely IBM have some documenation somewhere?
