Connecting to a Rational ClearQuest user database

You must connect to a Rational ClearQuest user database to access resources in ClearQuest repositories.
About this task

To connect, you must enter your login information when you attempt to access a repository. If single sign-on is enabled, you must do this only the first time you access a repository.

You can use the following procedure to establish a connection to a ClearQuest user database:

  1. Expand the ClearQuest node under the server node and click on a ClearQuest repository. If you are not already connected to the user database that contains that repository, the Connect to ClearQuest user database dialog box opens.
  2. Type your user name into the User Name text box. The user name must be associated with permissions to access the ClearQuest user database.
  3. Type your password into the Password text box.
  4. Click OK.
Results
If the user name and password are valid, you are connected to the ClearQuest user database, and you can explore the contents of the selected repository.
