You can add a central server to a remote server. However, you can have only one central server in your installation. Also, you cannot add a database that is not DCM-initialized. If no central CR database is listed, then the next database added is assumed to be the central server database.
Before you begin
If you are using Central Server mode and have any CRs that were created in a development database before Central Server mode was being used, you must migrate them into your central CR database. For detailed steps, see
Migrating change requests to a central server.
Procedure
To add a central server:
- Start an Admin session on the remote server.
- On the Action Panel, click System Administration.
- On the Server tab, click Central Server.
- Type the name of the central server to be connected.
- Type the URL of the central server.
After registration, you can click the name to open the log on page for the central server.
- Click Register.
You are prompted for the credentials of an admin user on a central server.
