Setting up processor value unit pricing

Before you can measure PVUs by which the adapter is licensed, you must set up PVU licensing for the adapter.

Before you begin

Make sure that you have installed the adapter software before you set up the processor unit value licenses.

About this task

To measure PVUs by which the adapter is licensed, you must copy a license file to each endpoint system that is the origin or destination of an adapter session. For example, the endpoints for adapter software can be one or more of the following locations:
  • One or more CCM and RM application servers that the adapter communicates with
  • One or more HP Application Lifecycle Management servers that the adapter communicates with
During the installation process the license files are copied for you to the application server that you chose to install the adapter into.

Procedure

  1. Change to the directory where you extracted the disk image or insert the product DVD and change to the HPQM/Disk1 directory.
  2. Change to the properties/version directory.
  3. If you installed the 1.0 adapter software, copy the license file named IBM_Rational_Lifecycle_Integration_Adapters_Standard_Edition__3rd-party_systems_-1.0.0.swtag from the directoryproperties/version to the directory properties/version for these locations:
    • Each CCM and RM application server that the adapter communicates with
    • Each HP Application Lifecycle Management server that the adapter communicates with. For each HP Application Lifecycle Management server, you must create a directory properties/version in the root of the HP ALM product to copy the license file into.
  4. If you installed the 1.0.0.1 adapter software, copy the license file named IBM_Rational_Lifecycle_Integration_Adapters_Standard_Edition__3rd-party_systems_1.0.0.1-1.0.0.1.fxtag from the directoryproperties/version to the directory properties/version for these locations:
    • Each CCM and RM application server that the adapter communicates with
    • Each HP Application Lifecycle Management server that the adapter communicates with. For each HP Application Lifecycle Management server, you must create a directory properties/version in the root of the HP ALM product to copy the license file into.

Results

You have set up processor value unit licensing on each endpoint system that is the origin or destination of an adapter session.

What to do next

Set up the application server that you chose during the installation process to run the adapter web application, see Setting up the application server.
