You configure SAP Solution Manager to work with the Rational® Connector.
Before you begin
The Rational Connector
is set up to work with IBM® Rational tools.
About this task
You configure Solution Manager so that the tab for the Rational Connector is shown.
It
can take 4 hours to two days to complete the tasks to configure and
activate the integration. Some of the steps are repeated as you deploy
multiple connectors that are attached to the same Solution Manager
instance and create and configure more connected Solution Manager,
connector and CLM projects.

Set up roles to activate Rational tool business functions and initialize
Solution Manager integration.
- Use the SAP* account to activate the Rational Quality Manager Business function
for each Solution Manager instance.

- Complete the connector integration steps after the activation,
by using an SAP* account with the roles in the Display User window. Roles that are required for Solution Manager integration are
as follows::
- You need one service account to run blueprint push and import
the test results into Solution Manager from Rational Quality Manager on a periodic basis.
See the previous step, but the roles SAP_SOLAR01_ALL and SAP_SOLAR02_ALL work
for that service account.
- You need another service account to run when you import a Rational Team Concert™ work
item (generally a Defect work item) to become a Service Desk incident
and link them together. See the previous step. The SAP_CM_CRM_UIU* and SAP_SWORK_* roles
that are shown in the Display User window are
sufficient.
- Users who want to do manual pushes of blueprints into Rational tools and run the
built-in report on test results can also use the roles SAP_SOLAR01_ALL and SAP_SOLAR02_ALL.
- Users who want to export a Service Desk incident to create a Rational Team Concert work
item and link the two can also use the SAP_CM_CRM_UIU* and SAP_SWORK_* roles.
