It is possible to instantiating more than one RQM Adapter connection in RPT or RIT?
I want to know if it is possible to instantiating more than one RQM Adapter in Rational Test Tools, through configuration file.
The client is asking me this 2 questions:
1. if it is possible to have more than one RQM Adapter Connection in the same machine to run in parallel, in RPT, RFT and RIT.
2. Can i specify in my RQM Adapter Config from RIT and RPT, more than one project Area.
The main idea is let in pre-configurated those RQM Adapter Connections pointing to a specific Project Area, for when I start a test I don't need to change in the configuration file the Project Area.
If anyone know some guidance, I will be glad to hear.
Kind Regards

Hi Ricardo,
As we discussed on ST on the RPT perspective:
>> 1. if it is possible to have more than one RQM Adapter Connection in the same machine to run in parallel, in RPT, RFT and RIT.
The RQM Adapter uses configuration settings from a file, typically C:\ProgramData\IBM\RQMConnectivity\rqmadapterV2.ini. Since this file is not tied to a workspace, there is no straightforward means to get to RQM Adapters to run in parallel.
However, I think at least in theory, 2 instances could start up with different settings if a wrapper script can overwrite contents of this file before starting up the adapter. I haven't tested this configuration out. Also, note that if you are pursuing this option, the workspaces used by the RQMAdapter instances should configure the workbench server ports to be different.
>> 2. Can i specify in my RQM Adapter Config from RIT and RPT, more than one project Area.
No, we can't create multiple project areas on the same RQM Adapter instance.
Thanks,
Arun
