Remote servers

An IBM® Rational® Change remote server acts as a bridge between a central server and remote development databases. A remote server is needed when you want databases that are hosted by different IBM Rational Synergy servers to be available to your central server.

Each remote server can potentially be paired with a different Rational Synergy server. By registering your remote servers with your central server, you give the central server access to all the development databases those remote servers can access.

Also, with remote servers, Rational Change can access more development databases. Users need only to log on to the central server. All CRs are stored in the central CR database.

When planning your upgrade, plan on one remote server for each additional Rational Synergy server. Remote servers can be installed on any host that can be reached from the central server over HTTP or HTTPS. For detailed steps, see Configuring for Secure Sockets Layer and HTTPS.
