When you have help configured for downloaded help
content (local help),
you can update help content from either the help update site
(ibm.com) if
you have an Internet connection or from a compressed file that you
downloaded from the IBM Updater website at http://download.boulder.ibm.com/ibmdl/pub/software/rationalsdp/documentation/updatesites/.
If you have an intranet server that provides access to help content
locally, download the content from the IBM® Updater
website. You can use the IBM Updater
website when you do not have Internet access on the server that hosts
the help or when the connection is slow or unreliable.
Procedure
Note: By default, the Automatic
Updates option is selected on the Updater page, so you
will get updated content from the help update site
(ibm.com) when the help WAR file is restarted and an internet
connection exists. If you clear the Automatic
Updates check box, you can manually update content by
following these steps:
- If your help server does not have an internet
connection or has a slow connection, you obtain the help-content compressed
file from the IBM Updater website.
- On a computer with internet access, obtain the compressed
help-content file for your product from the IBM Updater website at http://download.boulder.ibm.com/ibmdl/pub/software/rationalsdp/documentation/updatesites/. The file name has
the format prod_coden.n_updateSite.zip,
where prod_code is the product
code and n.n is the version
number. Download this file to the computer.
- Move the updateSite.zip file to
the help server.
- Extract the file contents.
- On the help server, navigate to local host
updater page, https://localhost:port/help-name/updater/updater.jsp.
Tip: To find the help context root (server,
port, and help-name), open the help from the product by clicking . Your URL is https://server:port/help-name/index.jsp.
Instead
of server, use localhost or 127.0.0.1. Note: You
need to be on the server that is hosting the help system.
The Updater opens.
- In the Installed Content pane,
if an icon next to a help feature has double arrows, that help feature
has updates. Select the help features to update.
- Click the
Update icon. If updates to your installed
content are available, the updates are installed on your system. A
progress bar indicates the status of the request.
- When the update is completed, verify
the help in the product by clicking.
