Restart Rational Synchronization Server.
To configure the Synchronization Server, you can use the
web-based admin interface. You can access the admin interface by pointing your
web browser at http://localhost:<port>/TlogicIntegration/admin/SyncFramework.html, where <port> is the port number your Tomcat server is running on.
You will be required to login to access the admin interface. Any user that has “administrator” role in
Tomcat is valid. Tomcat users are
defined in CATALINA_HOME/conf/tomcat-users.xml.
For
more details refer to Rational Synchronization Server Help available from the
admin interface.
To uninstall the Interim
Fix, follow below steps:
·
Stop Rational
Synchronization Server by stopping tomcat service.
·

following files & folders from RSS run-area:
o
<CATALINA_HOME>\webapps\TlogicIntegration\WEB-INF\lib\genericChangeSync.jar
o

Restart Rational
Synchronization Server.
Attachment deletion feature for “Rational
Change for Rational Team Concert” synchronizer is configurable. This feature can be
enabled or disabled by setting the property “attachment.allow.delete” to “true” or “false” in “<CATALINA_HOME>\webapps\TlogicIntegration\WEB-INF\conf\etc\sync_server.properties” file. If the property is
not defined then it defaults to “false”, which means do not delete
attachments.
Note:
The
attachment deletion enhancement was introduced in 1.4.0.5 release. If an
attachment is deleted from one of the synchronized object then in the next
synchronization cycle the attachment from other object shall be deleted
automatically by the synchronizer. Synchronizer makes a decision to delete an
attachment based on the time stamps of the objects as well as the creation time
of the attachment. However there is a small window where attachments might get
deleted in some unwanted scenarios (for example, attachment is added to a Workitem but saved after some time interval)
especially attachments modified across Sync interval times.
Hence it is recommended to
turn on the attachment deletion behavior only in case you are aware of certain
limitations.
