Configure connector properties (HP Quality Center)

As the site administrator, you can configure connector details in the HP Quality Center, TeamForge, and Connector Properties screens.

1. Click Admin in the TeamForge toolbar.
2. On the Site Administration toolbar, click Integrated Apps.
3. Select the connector and click Administer (or Configure in earlier versions of TeamForge).
4. In the QC Settings screen:
   1. Enter the URL of the Quality Center server. For example, http://cu117.cloud.sp.collab.net:8080/qcbin/.
   2. Specify the timezone for the Quality Center server.
   3. Specify the Quality Center username and password.
      Note: The Quality Center user needs TDAdmin permissions.
   4. Save your changes.
   
5. In the TeamForge Settings screen:
   1. Specify the timezone for the TeamForge server.
   2. Provide the TeamForge username and password.
      Note: This account refers to the dedicated connector user in TeamForge who has the requisite permissions to access (read/write) the tracker involved in the mapping. It is important that no other user be allowed to log into the system with the connector user's username and modify this tracker's artifacts.
   3. Save your changes.
   
6. In the Connector Properties tabs, provide these details.
   1. Edit the default log template as required.
   2. Define the core connector settings. For example, you can specify whether synchronization in a particular direction should happen on starting the connector.
      
      Tip: If you experience problems during the initial resynching of artifacts, try increasing the value of the Identity Map Event Wait Count and Identity Map Event Wait Time settings.
   3. Define repository settings, for example, whether attachments should be shipped in a particular direction.
      Note: Turning on the settings to ship human-readable names for the planning folder and technical release IDs may impact performance because more SOAP calls would be required.
   4. Save your changes.
