Use the Local Help System updater to help ensure that you
have the latest help content when the help server does not have Internet
access. The help server is either your product server or another intranet
server just for the help, depending on how the help is configured.
About this task
Updates are automatically installed on the help server each
time you start the product while the server has an Internet connection.
Procedure
To update the help when the help server does not have
Internet access:
- On a computer with Internet access, obtain the compressed
file for your product from the Help download site, http://download.boulder.ibm.com/ibmdl/pub/software/rationalsdp/documentation/updatesites/. The
file has this format: prod_coden.n_updateSite.zip,
where prod_code is the product code and n.n is
the version number.
- Copy this file to the help server, and extract the contents
of the file.
- On the help
server, navigate to product-URL/help/updater/updatewar.jsp,
for example, https://localhost:9443/help/updater/updatewar.jsp.
The Local Help Updater opens.
- Click the Internal Sites tab, and
if the location of the extracted files is not already in the Internal
site list, click Add (+), and enter
the location of the extractedsite/site.xml file
from the Help download site. For example, if your extracted files are
in c:\myHelp, enter c:\myHelp\site\site.xml.
- Click OK in the Add Internal
Site dialog box.
- Click the Installed Features tab.
- Click Search for Updates. If updates to the content you have installed are available,
they are installed on the help server. A progress bar indicates the
status of the request.
- When the update is completed, open the help in the product
by selecting .
