Linking a Team Concert with Requirements Composer
Hello,
I've installed an instance of Requirement Composer 2.0Beta on a WinXP machine and an instance of Team Concert 2 on a RH5. My question is about linking two project areas created with these tools: I need to link a requirement to a work item created in a plan. Is it possible, at the moment? Should I wait for the RRC 2.0 release? I've seen that the jazz servers can communicate between themselves, but it seems there isn't a link type suitable for that integration. The idea came up seeing a demonstration video that was showing that a thing like that should be possible.
Thank you very much
Marco

Hello Marco
I believe what you are trying to do is possible. You will need to set up the two servers so that they can "talk" to each other, then add the links.
First, configure OAuth on your servers, as described here:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/rtc/v2r0m0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.team.repository.web.admin.doc/topics/tconfigoauth.html
Next, configure cross-server communication, as described here:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/rtc/v2r0m0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.team.repository.web.admin.doc/topics/tservertoserverconfig.html
Then, open the project area that has the work items in the editor of the web UI. Click Add.. in the Links section and use the dialog to add a link to your RRC server. The relationships between RTC and RRC are of type implements/implemented by.
After that, you should be able to link requirements on the RRC server to work items in RTC.
For an overview of how we smoke test the scenario you describe, check out the RRC - RTC section of this page:
