Rational Performance Tester (RPT) Installation


Brian Chen (132) | asked May 19 '20, 10:12 a.m.

 Good morning,

Forgive me in advance if this is not the right place to ask, but I've tried multiple support desks and have had no luck on solving this issue.

I am trying to install the latest version of RPT (10.0.2., from 8.3.) The installation instructions stated that I should uninstall the previous version before moving to later versions, so I uninstalled using IBM Installation Manager. Then I downloaded the rpt10021.update.disk1.zip file from Fix Central and extracted it. In the IBM Installation Manager, under File, Preferences..., -> Add Repository..., when I point to either rpt10021.update.disk1/RPT/disk1/ad/repository.config or rpt10021.update.disk1/RPT/disk1/md/repository.config, I get an error stating "Repository rpt10021.update.disk1/RPT/disk1/ad/ (or md) can not be opened directly. It must be opened through disk 1 at rpt10021.update.disk1/RPT/disk1."

Your time and help is appreciated. Thanks.

 The URL for the Fix Central download is below. Under the Release 10.0 tab, the download link is named "Download RPT 10.0.2.1" released 03/12/2020.

Hi, Brian

Jazz.net forum is not for RPT and RFT as they are not a part of jazz products. RPT forum is now moved to
