Use the following steps to set up and configure the Design
Management Server.
After Design Management is installed, you must configure the Jazz™ Team Server URI as well as
create an administrative user. The Express Setup configuration option
uses the default Apache Derby database and creates the administrative
user which is assigned to the data warehouses for each installed application.
Before you begin
Before you configure the server, you must enable pop-up windows
to avoid installation problems during the setup and configuration
process.
Important: When you set up and configure the
model server, do not refresh the browser or use the front and back
buttons.
Procedure
- Start the installed server by using an account
that has administrator permissions.
- If you are using Apache Tomcat on a Windows operating system, click .
Important: If
you are using Apache Tomcat, wait for the message INFO: Server
startup in # ms. This step might take a while to complete
the first time that you start the server; on subsequent restarts,
the server starts much faster.
Tip: To start the
server from the command line, open a command prompt as an administrator:
click , right-click Command
Prompt, and click Run as administrator.
In the administrator command window, go to the server folder
in your server installation directory and run server.startup.bat.
- If you are using Apache Tomcat on a Linux operating system, go to the server folder
in your server installation directory and run server.startup.
- If you are using WebSphere® Application Server,
start the server from the WebSphere Application Server administrative
console.
- In a web browser, go to https://fully_qualified_host_name:9443/jts/setup.
A fully_qualified_host_name includes both
the host name and the DNS domain reference of the server on which
the Jazz Team Server is installed.
An example of a fully qualified host name is myserver.example.org.
The fully qualified host name cannot include localhost or
an IP address.
To find the fully qualified host name (hostname.DNSsuffix)
of the server on a Windows operating
system, at a command prompt, type hostname to get
the host name, and type ipconfig to get the DNS
suffix.
On a Linux operating
system, in a terminal window, type hostname –fqdn.
- The Design
Management Server is
built on and runs on Jazz Team Server.
Therefore, during the setup and configuration process, you must use
parts of the standard Jazz Team Server functionality.
On the Jazz Team Server login
page, enter ADMIN (case sensitive) in both
the User ID and Password fields,
and then click Log In.
The following
diagram displays the login page for the Jazz Team
Server.

- On the Setup page, click Express
Setup and click Next.
- On the Configure Public URI page,
provide a public URI in the following format: https://fully_qualified_host_name:9443/jts.
After you read the warning, and if you understand the implications,
click I understand that once the Public URI is set, it
can not be modified. Design Management verifies the connection;
after the test is successful, click Next.
The following diagram shows the Configure Public URI page.
You can accept the default URI or enter a different URI.

Tip: If another Jazz application
is installed on the server, to avoid a port number collision, change
the default port number from 9443 to an available port number. If
you have a multiple or enterprise installation that is using Apache
Tomcat and have different applications installed in different installations
packages, each application must have a different port number to avoid
collisions.
Remember: The variable fully_qualified_host_name is
the host name and the DNS domain reference of the computer on which
the Jazz Team Server is
installed.
- On the Create User page, create the
user ID, name, password, and email address of the user who has administrative
user access to the Jazz Team
Server. You might consider using DM_Admin for
the user ID, name, and password. This user has access to the data
warehouse to run reports.
- Click Next.
- The application begins to configure and set up the database
and data warehouse, register applications, install the sample project,
and finalize each application. This process can take a few minutes.
After the process is complete, click Next.
- On the Assign Licenses page, assign
the Rational Software Architect Design Manager - Design
Manager or Rational Rhapsody Design Manager
- Design Manager license to the new DM_Admin account,
and then click Next.
Note: If you
are installing other CLM applications, you can also select licenses
for Rational® Requirements
Composer, Rational Team Concert™, or Rational Quality
Management. Click Activate Trial to get a temporary
license.
- Click Finish and
the wizard redirects you to https://fully_qualified_host_name:9443/jts/admin.
