Post-Installation checklist

This section describes what to do after installing the Rational® Build Forge® system.

Check PATH variable on Windows

The PATH environment variable on Windows must include the path to the database client or driver DLLs. Check the PATH manually for these databases: For Microsoft SQL Server, setting up the ODBC connection takes care of this requirement.

Identify proxy server

This step is optional. It is required only if the management console has to use a proxy server to access its database. You must configure PHP to use the proxy server.

Set JVM memory (required for Quick Report)

This step is optional; however, it is required if your edition includes Quick Report (Standard Edition, Enterprise Edition, Enterprise Plus Edition).

Log message migration

Rational® Build Forge® stores job messages in a different manner from older releases. Therefore, if the Rational® Build Forge® installation is an upgrade from a previous release, the Message column in the job output page might be temporarily blank until the migration of that job is complete. As this happens in small, low-priority batches, the migration might take time. If any job has blank messages, it is recommended that you wait until that job's message migration has completed.
