To integrate Rational® DOORS® with Rational Quality Manager (RQM), youwill need to install and configure Rational DOORS with its Rational Quality Manager Interface (RQMI) components.
These instructions assume that you have an existing Rational QualityManager server that is already set up and working correctly. You will need the Installingand using RQM Interface for Rational DOORS manual for your version of Rational DOORS asshown in the figure below.
Figure 35 –Selecting RQM Interface for Rational DOORS
In the instructions below, RQM Interface for Rational DOORS manual will be referred to as the install guide. For further detail follow the document at thislink to configure the RQM Interface between Rational DOORS and Rational QualityManager.
Installing the Rational DOORS for Rational Quality Manager Interface server:

Installing the Rational DOORS for Rational Quality Manager Interface client:

Complete the DOORS Server and Client install wizard:
Follow the link below for installing and using RQM Interface for Rational doors:
In this example, Rational DOORS 9.3.0.4 and Rational Quality Manager3.0.1 are used. There are three systems:
On the Rational Quality Manager server:
1.If needed, start Rational Quality Manager.
2.Create a Rational Quality Manager user account for the RQMI user asdescribed in the install guide, and make this user a member of each project area. Note: The "Create an RQM User Account" section in the "Installation prerequisites" section of the install guide explains in detail the requirements for the RQM user account. If allrequirements are not met before the RQMI installation, you may have problems using RQMI.
3.Verify that you can successfully log in as the RQMI user.
On the Rational DOORS server:
1.If needed:
a)Set up your licenses and License Server.
b)Install Rational DOORS (first server, then client) -- do NOT include theRQMI Server and Client components at this time.
2.Start the Rational DOORS client and create the RQMI DOORS user account asdescribed in the install guide.
3.Exit Rational DOORS.
4.Log in as the RQMI DOORS user to set its password. Exit DOORS. Note: You will have problems with RQMI if you forget this step, as new DOORS users start with expired passwords, and must immediately update the password before they can log in tothe DOORS database.
5.Stop the Rational DOORS server.
6.Uninstall the Rational DOORS client, then reinstall it. During thisinstallation, be sure to include the RQMI Server and Client components. Do a full reinstallfor best results -- simply modifying the installation may result in RQMI problems. You will need information about your RQM and DOORS servers to install the RQMI components:
a)RQM server host name and port
b)Credentials for the RQMI user that was created on RQM server
c)Credentials for the RQMI DOORS user that was created on DOORS server
7.Start the Rational DOORS server.
8.Start the RQMI server software as described in the install guide.
9.Start the Rational DOORS client.
10.Create a new module (or open an existing module).
11.In the module's RQM menu, select Export to RQM.
12.If you do not have a custom view, you will be asked if you want to export the Standard view.
13.Then you will be prompted to select the project area and test plan you want to export to. You can create a new test plan, if you want.
14.Click Export to proceed -- you will get an acknowledgement message after the Export finishes. You can use RQM > View Export Status to check the status of your export.
15.At this point, troubleshoot any issues foundwhile: - Starting the RQMI server - Exporting to RQM from the DOORS client Refer to the Troubleshooting section below for the solutions to some common issues.
16.Once all issues are resolved and you can successfully export to RQM, you are ready to set up RQMI on the DOORS client workstation.
On the client workstation:
1.Install the DOORS client. Use the custom option to include the RQMI Client component. If the DOORS client is already installed – for example, a Typical installation was done previously -- uninstall it first.
2.Start the DOORS client. You should be able to export to RQM as describedabove.
