INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Once you have installed 5.7.0.7 iFix001, you should not install any individual iFix or FixPack that does not clearly state that it may be installed on top of 5.7.0.7 iFix001, unless informed otherwise by IBM Technical Support.

Before installing 5.7.0.7 iFix001, you must first install DOORS client version 9.2.0.3 or higher.

1. Extract the iFix files into a temporary directory. Use Winzip (or another zip tool) to extract the files.

2. Start DOORS as a user with database manager privilege

3. Click Rational Change Interface->Package Manager.

4. Remove all previous Rational Change for DOORS Interface 5.7 FixPacks or patches from the Package Manager. You can do this by clicking Rational Change Integration->Package Manager, selecting each of the Installed Packages, then clicking Remove.

NOTE:

- It is not necessary to remove the iFix or FixPacks currently installed from all the DOORS client.

5. Click the Add button, browse to the package_info.xml file located in the temporary directory from step 1.

6. Restart your DOORS session, you will be prompted to install the iFix on the client. All users who have the Change for DOORS Interface installed and have appropriate privileges to modify their DOORS installation area will be prompted to install the iFix the next time they start DOORS.

NOTE:

- If the DOORS client version 9.2.0.3 or higher is not installed, you will not be prompted to install the FixPack after restarting your DOORS session.

- After installing Rational Change for DOORS Interface 5.7.0.7 iFix001, the Integration will ask the user to restart DOORS in order for the iFix to be properly installed. When you attempt to exit your DOORS session, a DXL error will briefly appear and DOORS will exit.

The instructions below explain how to install the Rational Change for DOORS Interface Patch 5.7 Change Package.

1. Login to the machine where Rational Change is installed as the user who installed Rational Change.

2. Unzip the iFix file into a temporary directory. Copy the folder named doors_change_57_patch_change_package to your Rational Change installation packages directory (e.g. <CS_HOME>\cs_app\webapps\synergy\WEB-INF\packages)

3. Login to Change as Admin, and click the Administration toolbar icon.

4. You can now select this patch package from the "Package Installer" tab which will show this patch package under "Available Packages". Install the patch.

NOTE: Because this patch modifies files included in doors_cs_template, this patch must be reinstalled every time a CRProcess package is installed in Change.

REVERSING THE IFIX

If it is necessary to remove the iFix after it was installed, follow these steps.

1. Start DOORS, click Rational Change Integration->Remove Packages From Client

2. Select this iFix and click Remove. If you have installed other iFixes or FixPacks after installing this iFix, you must remove them first.

The instructions below explain how to remove the Rational Change for DOORS Interface Patch 5.7 Change Package.

1. Login to Change as Admin, and click the Administration toolbar icon.

2. Uninstall the patch package. Click on the "Package Installer" tab. You should see the doors_change_57_patch_change_package in the Installed Packages. Click the uninstall button.
