You use the Rational® Administrator
to associate a Rational RequisitePro® project and Rational ClearQuest® user database. If Rational ClearQuest is
configured for MultiSite, the database replica that is configured
for the integration in Rational Administrator
is the master site for the integration.
About this task
In a ClearQuest MultiSite
environment, you can create associations in a record that is mastered
at a remote site by logging on at the remote site and associating
the record with a Rational ClearQuest requirement; Rational RequisitePro requirements
are unavailable at remote sites. You do not need to have mastership
of the Rational ClearQuest requirement
at the site where you make the association. After the remote site
is synchronized with the master site for the integration, the association
information is added to the Rational RequisitePro project
during a scheduled batch refresh operation.
The integration
of Rational ClearQuest and Rational RequisitePro in a Rational ClearQuest MultiSite environment provides
the following capabilities at the master site.
Rational RequisitePro tasks:
- Create a Rational ClearQuest requirement.
- Associate a Rational ClearQuest requirement
with a Rational ClearQuest record.
- View associated Rational ClearQuest requirements
and Rational ClearQuest records.
- Refresh the association for a requirement.
- Perform a scheduled batch refresh.
Rational ClearQuest tasks:
- Associate a record with a Rational RequisitePro requirement
(Windows client only)
- View Rational RequisitePro requirement
properties.
- Refresh the association for a Rational ClearQuest requirement
or other record
The integration of Rational ClearQuest and Rational RequisitePro in a Rational ClearQuest MultiSite environment provides
the following capabilities at a remote replica.
From
Rational RequisitePro,
which is configured at the master site, to information at the remote
replica:
- No access to changes until content is synchronized with the master
site.
In
Rational ClearQuest at
a remote replica:
- Associate a record with a Rational ClearQuest requirement.
- View Rational ClearQuest requirements
and record properties
