You can install help content on your computer and access
it locally from your Rational DOORS client. To do so, install the
local help on your computer from the remote IBM information center
or from an internal site that is configured on your network by an
administrator. Administrators can also install help content on a shared
server on your intranet.
Before you begin
Typically, this task is done on a computer where the Rational
DOORS client is installed. If you are installing the help on an intranet
server where Rational DOORS is not installed, you must first deploy
the help system infrastructure on that server. Then, you can
install help content.
About this task
The help delivery system is packaged as a web archive (.war)
file and is installed with Rational DOORS. The .war file contains
the basic help infrastructure that is required to run a help system
and minimal product-specific information. By default, the Rational
DOORS client accesses help content from a remote IBM information center.
You can install the help content locally on your computer by using
the Local Help Updater. If you have Internet access, the Local Help
Updater installs the help from the remote IBM information center.
If you do not have Internet access, you can configure the Local Help
Updater to install the help from help archive file. You or an administrator
can download the help archive file to your computer or to a server
on your network.
