The databases available to the IBM® Rational® ClearQuest® adapter are the same as the
ones in the Rational ClearQuest administration
tool on the system on which the adapter is deployed. You can verify
that the Rational ClearQuest adapter is correctly
configured to access the same set of databases as the Rational ClearQuest client. You can configure the Rational ClearQuest adapter to access another database,
or prevent the adapter from accessing a database. These tasks are
optional, administrative tasks.
Before you begin
Make sure the
IBM Rational Insight
Data Services adapters
are deployed on WebSphere® Application
Server.
If you get any firewall warnings or license errors, correct
the problem before verifying the Rational ClearQuest adapter. If you
get an error 500 when accessing the URL for the Rational ClearQuest adapter, try opening the database
in the Rational ClearQuest client.
About this task
The general tasks for configuring Rational ClearQuest adapter are:
- Verifying if the Rational ClearQuest adapter is installed
correctly
- Adding or removing databases
Verifying that the Rational ClearQuest adapter is installed
correctly- Open a Web browser.
- Enter the URL of the Rational ClearQuest adapter in the
address bar of the browser. By default, the URL is http://localhost:9080/DataServices/ClearQuest.
If the Rational ClearQuest adapter is working
correctly, you see an XML document that lists all the schema repositories
registered with the Rational ClearQuest administration
tool.
Note: If you see other resources, you can repeat this step with
the URLs for those resources, and see lists of user databases, queries
defined in those databases, and individual records returned by those
queries.
Adding a database- Start the Rational ClearQuest Maintenance tool.
- Define a new connection to the database.
For more information, see the Rational ClearQuest documentation.
Removing
a database- Start the Rational ClearQuest Maintenance tool.
- Delete an existing connection to a database.
For more information, see the Rational ClearQuest documentation.
