Using the integration with ClearQuest MultiSite

You use the Rational® Administrator to associate a Rational RequisitePro® project and Rational ClearQuest® user database. If Rational ClearQuest is configured for MultiSite, the database replica that is configured for the integration in Rational Administrator is the master site for the integration.

About this task

In a ClearQuest MultiSite environment, you can create associations in a record that is mastered at a remote site by logging on at the remote site and associating the record with a Rational ClearQuest requirement; Rational RequisitePro requirements are unavailable at remote sites. You do not need to have mastership of the Rational ClearQuest requirement at the site where you make the association. After the remote site is synchronized with the master site for the integration, the association information is added to the Rational RequisitePro project during a scheduled batch refresh operation.

The integration of Rational ClearQuest and Rational RequisitePro in a Rational ClearQuest MultiSite environment provides the following capabilities at the master site.

Rational RequisitePro tasks:

Rational ClearQuest tasks:
  • Associate a record with a Rational RequisitePro requirement (Windows client only)
  • View Rational RequisitePro requirement properties.
  • Refresh the association for a Rational ClearQuest requirement or other record

The integration of Rational ClearQuest and Rational RequisitePro in a Rational ClearQuest MultiSite environment provides the following capabilities at a remote replica.

From Rational RequisitePro, which is configured at the master site, to information at the remote replica:
  • No access to changes until content is synchronized with the master site.
In Rational ClearQuest at a remote replica:
  • Associate a record with a Rational ClearQuest requirement.
  • View Rational ClearQuest requirements and record properties
