You can create a library that is accessible in both IBM® Rational® Publishing Engine and IBM Rational ClearQuest® and associate the shared libraries with the data services
profile.
Before you begin
You need the URL of the Rational ClearQuest adapter on the Rational Publishing Engine data services web application. To obtain the URL, refer
to the section on the general tasks for configuring the data service.
Correct any firewall warnings or license errors, before configuring
the Rational ClearQuest adapter. If you receive a 500 error when accessing the
URL, opening the database in the Rational ClearQuest client might fix this problem.
About this task
The general tasks for configuring the
Rational ClearQuest adapter are:
- Creating a shared library for the ClearQuest adapter.
- Associating ClearQuest shared libraries with the data service
profile.
Procedure
- To create a shared library for the ClearQuest adapter:
- Click to view the
Shared Libraries page.
- To specify the scope setting, select the Node=RationalPublishingEngineNode01,
Server=RationalPublishingEngineServer entry. RationalPublishingEngineNode01
is the default name of the node and RationalPublishingEngineServer
is the default name of the server.
- To create the shared library reference, click New.
- Set the values for Name, Description, and ClassPath.
Ensure that your classpath refers to the files in their correct locations.

C:\Program Files\IBM\RationalSDLC\ClearQuest\cqjni.jar
C:\Program Files\IBM\RationalSDLC\ClearQuest\stpcq.jar
C:\Program
Files\IBM\RationalSDLC\Common\stpcmmn.jar
C:\Program
Files\IBM\RationalSDLC\Common\stpwvcm.jar
|
Note: The default values listed under substep
(d) are for the IBM Rational ClearQuest 7.1. The actual paths used for the classpath entries depend
on where Rational ClearQuest is installed. Make sure that your classpath refers to
the files in their correct locations. To see the installation location,
open IBM Installation Manager
by clicking .
- Click OK, and then click Save.
- To associate ClearQuest shared libraries with the data
services profile:
- Click .
- Click the server on which you have deployed the data
service. The default value is RationalPublishingEngineServer.
- Click .
- To create a class loader for the shared libraries, click .
- To associate the shared library references with the
class loader, click the hyperlink of the new class loader created
in substep (d).
- For each library to be associated, click Add, select the library, and click OK.
- Click Shared library references.
- For each library to be associated, click Add, select the library, and click OK.
- Click Save.
- Restart the DataServices profile.
- Verify that the IBM Rational ClearQuest adapter is installed correctly:
- Open a web browser.
- Enter the URL of the Rational ClearQuest adapter in the address bar of the browser. By default,
the URL is http://host:port/DataServices/ClearQuest
Note: You can find out the port number from the administrative
console. If the installation is correct, you see an XML document that
lists the schema repositories registered with the Rational ClearQuest administration tool.
