To run and share ClearQuest reports created with Business
Intelligence and Reporting Tools (BIRT), configure the Rational Team
Concert with the ClearQuest Reporting Driver.
Before you begin
The ClearQuest Reporting Driver requires version 6 Java Runtime
Environment. By default, your Jazz Team Server might be using an older
Java Runtime Environment (JRE) which does not support the ClearQuest
Reporting Driver. To update the JRE, complete these steps:
- Go to the directory IBM\JazzTeamServer\server.
- Make a backup copy of the server startup configuration file server.startup.bat on
Windows or server.start on Linux and UNIX.
- Edit the server startup configuration to set the JRE_HOME parameter
with the path to the Java Runtime Environment (JRE).
If ClearQuest
is installed on the same server as the Jazz Team Server, you can start
the Jazz Team Server with the JRE included with ClearQuest.
- On Windows
- Edit server.startup.bat to add this line:
set JRE_HOME=D:\Program Files\IBM\RationalSDLC\common\Java5.0\jre\
- On Linux
- Add this line to server startup:
JRE_HOME=/opt/rational/common/java/jre
Note: If you use the JAVA 6 Virtual Machine provided
with ClearQuest, comment out this line:
# JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Xmx4000M"
About this task
These instructions apply to configuring the Rational Team
Concert web client and the Rational Team Concert Eclipse client with
the ClearQuest Reporting Driver. In these environments, the reports
to be managed and run must be deployed on the Rational Team Concert
server. To create or modify reports by using the Rational Team Concert
Eclipse client, see
Configuring an Eclipse Workbench for ClearQuest reporting activities.
Procedure
- Copy the ClearQuest Reporting Driver update site from /clearquest/reports/driver to
the appropriate Jazz Team Server directory.
- For Rational Team Concert 2.x:
- <rtc home>/jazz/server
- For Rational Team Concert 3.x:
- rtc home/JazzTeamServer/server/conf/ccm/sites.
- Rename the copied driver directory
to cq-report-driver-update-site.
- Create a provision profile for the ClearQuest Reporting
Driver.
- For Rational Team Concert 2.x:
- In the directory <rtc home>\jazz\server\conf\jazz\provision_profiles,
copy the file profile.ini and save it as cq-report-driver-profile.ini
- For Rational Team Concert 3.x:
- In the directory <rtc home>\JazzTeamServer\server\conf\jts\provision_profiles,
copy the file profile.ini and save it as cq-report-driver-profile.ini.
- Edit cq-report-driver-profile.ini and
update the url and featureid parameters
with these values:
url=file:../cq-report-driver-update-site
featureid=com.ibm.rational.clearquest.oda.jdbc.base.feature
Note: Tip:
On Windows systems, edit the file with WordPad rather than Notepad.
- Remove the directory /opt/IBM/JazzTeamServer/server/tomcat/work.
- Restart the Rational Team Concert server.
