Accessing programs and projects in Rational Team Concert

From IBM® Rational Team Concert™, you can access programs and projects (or subprojects) created in IBM Rational® Project Conductor. You can view and edit the program and project properties, and the WBS elements that belong to projects.

Before you begin

To access the program or project from Rational Team Concert, you must be added to the program or project in Rational Project Conductor. This can be achieved in any of the following ways:

About this task

If you are using the Rational Team Concert Web client, you can access the programs and projects from the Rational Team Concert Project Areas page.

If you are using the Rational Team Concert Eclipse client, you need to connect to the project area for the program or project. For each program or project that you want to access, you must establish a separate project area connection.

To access programs and projects:

Procedure

  1. From the Rational Team Concert Web client:
    1. Enter the URL for your Rational Project Conductor server in a Web browser. The URL is in the following form: https://host:port/jazz/web. For example: https://example.com:9443/jazz/web.
    2. Log in with the user name and password that your server administrator has provided for you.
    3. In the Project areas page, the programs and projects created in Rational Project Conductor are displayed along with other Rational Team Concert project areas. Click a project area that belongs to Rational Project Conductor to open the project area dashboard.
  2. From the Rational Team Concert Eclipse client:
    1. Create a connection to the Rational Project Conductor. If you have not previously created a repository connection, click the Create Repository Connection link in the Team Artifacts view. Otherwise, right-click in the Team Artifacts view and click New > Jazz Repository Connection.
    2. In Create a Jazz™ Repository Connection window, type or paste a Location URI. If the server is running on your computer, the server host name is localhost, and you can select the localhost URI from the dropdown list; for example, https://localhost:9443/jazz. The Location Name defaults to the server host name. You can modify it to simplify or clarify the name.
    3. Type the user name and password that your server administrator has provided for you. Click Finish.
    4. In the Repository Connections folder, right-click the repository connection and click Connect to Project areas.
    5. In the Connect to Project Areas window, select a project area. Click Finish.
