Before configuring the Reporting Data Services Adapters,
you must configure the Rational® Publishing Engine Data
Services application profile to start automatically each time the
Reporting data services application server is restarted.
Before you begin
Deploy the Reporting Data Services Adapters on
IBM® WebSphere® Application Server.
If
you installed the adapters for Rational ClearQuest® and Rational RequisitePro®, you need the URLs of these
adapters on the Rational Publishing Engine Data
Services application. If you get any firewall warnings
or license errors, correct the problem before verifying the 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.
Procedure
- Open a command prompt.
- Navigate to the bin directory of the WebSphere Application Server instance
that the Reporting data services application is deployed on. Example:
%WAS_HOME%\bin
/opt/IBM/WebSphere/bin
- Run the wasservice command:
WASService.exe
-add service_name -serverName server_name -profilePath WAS_RPE_profile -startType
automatic
wasservice.sh
-add RPE -serverName server1 -profilePath WAS_RPE_profile -startType
automatic
where
WAS_RPE_profile is the
Rational Publishing Engine
profile on WebSphere Application
Server. Example:
C:\Program
Files\IBM\WebSphere Application Server\AppServer\profiles\RPE
/opt/ibm/WebSphereApplicationServer/AppServer/profiles/RPE
Note: Enter the spaces as noted. The Reporting data services
application profile might take several minutes to start. Until the
profile starts, you might not be able to access the WebSphere Application Server administrative
console and Rational Publishing Engine Data
Services application.
