Propagating connection information to clients

About this task

If you have made any changes to the connection information for the schema repositories and user databases, you must propagate a new connection profile to the Rational® ClearQuest® clients.

Use the next procedure to propagate connection information to version 7.1.x clients.

Procedure

  1. On a Windows administrative host running version 7.0 or earlier, use the Maintenance Tool to export connection profiles, and then import the connection profiles on your 7.1.x clients.
  2. Run the cqreg refresh command on each install area used by Linux and UNIX system clients.
  3. For Linux and the UNIX system clients, use the cqreg drop_dbset and cqreg add_dbset commands to drop and re-create the database connection information.

Results

These steps generates the connection information to the clients. The connection information is retained when the clients are upgraded to version 7.1.x.
