Note for SQL Anywhere users on Windows 2000: To avoid problems when connecting to a SQL Anywhere
datastore, rename the file iphlpapi.dll to iphlpapi.dlx in the Rational Test directory.
RQA: There is a defect in this version of the product that is causing the EJB stub hot deployment feature to fail. This defect occurs because the RationalBankAcct subdirectory name under the wl_deploy directory is changed to all lower-case characters. This causes the source files to fail compilation. To workaround this problem, change the rationalbankacct directory name back to RationalBankAcct.
Note for Java Enabler users: This service release does not include updates to the Java Enabler. You can download the latest version of the Java Enabler by using the Web Update selection when running the Java Enabler. For example, select Start->Rational Suite TestStudio > Rational Test > Java Enabler.
Note for users performing API
recording of Internet Explorer: When performing an
API recording of Internet Explorer, you should disable script debugging to
avoid abnormal behavior that may cause confusion and/or failure to record a
session properly. To disable script debugging, in Internet Explorer, click
Tools > Internet Options > Advanced, Browsing section > Disable Script
Debugging.
Note for users running Java test scripts on Solaris or Linux
Agents: Before you run a test script, add /usr/rational/test to the
system environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH. To do this, in TestManager click
Suite > Edit Settings, and then click the button in the Sys Environment
Variables dialog box.
Documentation
Correction: In
Appendix A of the Rational TestManager User's Guide, the example of
running more than 24 virtual testers on a UNIX Agent is incorrect. The correct
environment names and values are shown in bold:
...
set semsys:seminfo_semmsl=4096
...
set shmsys:shminfo_shmni=1024
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=100072000
set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=100
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin=1
