Configuring the Rational Synergy main server and the Rational Synergy client to use the cache server

This content applies to version 7.2.1 or later. After you install the cache server on UNIX, you must configure the main server and the client to use the cache server.

Procedure

  1. Configure the Rational® Synergy main server:
    1. Log on to the machine where the Rational Synergy main server is installed.
    2. Locate the ccm.server.properties file in the main server runarea:

      $CCM_HOME/etc

    3. In a text file editor, open the ccm.server.properties file and add the following line:

      ccm.cache.server.client_location=cache_server_url

      where, client_location is any string, for instance Bangalore or boston,

      and cache_server_url is http://cache server hostname:cache server port.

      Example:

      ccm.cache.server.bangalore=http://cacheserver1:8400

      ccm.cache.server.boston=http://cacheserver2:8400

    4. Save the file and exit the editor.
    5. Restart the Rational Synergy daemons:
      # su - ccm_root
          Password: *****
      # CCM_HOME=ccm_home; export CCM_HOME
      # PATH=$CCM_HOME/bin:$PATH; export PATH
      # ccm_stop_daemons
      # ccm_start_daemons
  2. Configure the Rational Synergy client:
    1. Log on to the machine where the Rational Synergy client is installed.
    2. Locate the ccm.properties file:

      $CCM_HOME/etc

    3. In a text file editor, open the ccm.properties file and add the following line:

      ccm.client.location=client_location

      where the client_location is the location specified in the ccm.server.properties file in the Rational Synergy main server.

      For example, for a client to use a cache server specified for location bangalore, add this entry:

      ccm.client.location=bangalore

    4. Save and exit the editor.
    5. Restart the client session.
