Use the Rational® Adapter
for Git administration interface to establish cross-server communication
between Rational Adapter
for Git and the Change and Configuration Management server. Use this
procedure to add the location information for the Change and Configuration
Management application, and send a request to the friend application.
Before you begin
After installing the Rational Adapter
for Git and completing the set up of the adapter, you must establish
a friend relationship between the Rational Adapter
for Git and the server used by Rational Team Concert™ (Change
and Configuration Management server).
About this task
Add a friend relationship to the Change and Configuration
Management server to establish cross-server communication with the Rational Adapter for Git.
Procedure
- Point your browser to https://[fully qualified
hostname]:[port]/gitAdapter. Log in
to the Rational Adapter
for Git server. Use an account that has administrator privileges,
if applicable.
- On the Application Administration page, click Friends
(Outbound). The Friends page opens.
- At the Friends List, click Add. The Add Friend window opens.
- For Name, type the name that you
want to use to identify the Git friend application.To
create a friend relationship with an installation of Rational Team Concert that
is hosted on a machine named rtc.example.com, then
you might use the name RTC on rtc.example.com
- For Root Services URI, type the
uniform resource identifier for the Jazz™ application
server. For the Rational Team Concert server,
use https://host-name:[port]/ccm/rootservices.
- In the OAuth Secret and Re-type
Secret fields, enter an OAuth secret code phrase to associate
with the new OAuth consumer key. This string can contain one or more
words and special characters, and cannot exceed 50 characters. This
string is never displayed in the user interface, and you do not enter
this string again. This string, also called an OAuth consumer secret,
acts as a password to access the friend server.
- Select the Trusted check box. Trusted consumers can share authorization with other trusted
consumers and do not require user approval to access data.
- Click Create Friend. A confirmation
message opens. Click Next to continue.
- Click Finish. The
Friends list shows your friend server request.
