Adding independent integrations

Add an independent integration to Rational® ClearQuest® by adding the appropriate package to your existing schema.
Attention: Plan carefully before adding packages to your schema. After you add a package, you cannot remove it. You must delete all schema versions in which the package exists. You can delete schema versions only if you have not applied them to a user database.

ClearQuest supports the following independent integrations:

IBM Rational ClearCase® (Base Rational ClearCase)   Rational ClearCase Help. See the sections on integrations, specifically integration with IBM Rational ClearQuest. The Rational ClearCase integration described is a Base Rational ClearCase integration; there are no predefined policies. Policies must be set up by the Rational ClearCase administrator. The UCM integration described in Adding a Rational UCM integration automatically configures predefined Rational ClearCase policies.

You must have Super User or Schema Designer user privileges to add packages.

It is a best practice to first add an integration in a test environment before adding it to your production database. See Testing integrations.

To add an independent integration:

  1. Use the Designer to ensure that the schema to which you want to add the package is checked in.
  2. Install the desired package. See Applying package upgrades.
  3. Validate the schema changes. See Validating schema changes.
  4. Save the schema changes. See Checking in a schema.
  5. Apply the schema changes to the user database. See Upgrading a user database.
  6. Configure the integrated application, as needed. See the documentation for the application.
