  1. If you have Rhapsody running, close Rhapsody - so that you can modify its configuration files
     
  2. Locate the Profiles folder in your Rhapsody installation.

    1. For Rhapsody 8.x - On Windows 10, the Profiles folder is located under your user directory as follows:<Your_User_Directory>\IBM\Rational\Rhapsody\8.1.3x64\Share\Profiles
      e.g. C:\Users\InterCAX\IBM\Rational\Rhapsody8.1.3x64\Share\Profiles. 
      1. Alternatively, if you have a merged installation of Rhapsody, then the Profiles folder will be under ProgramData\IBM\Rational\Rhapsody folder, such as:
        C:\ProgramData\IBM\Rational\Rhapsody\8.1x64\Share\Profiles 

    2. For Rhapsody 9.x - On Windows 10, the Profiles folder is located under in <Rhapsody_Installation>\9.0\Share\Profiles, e.g. C:\Program Files\IBM\Rhapsody\9.0\Share\Profiles.
      1. Do not install in <Your_User_Directory>\IBM\Rhapsody\9.0x64\UserShare\Profiles, e.g. C:\Users\Rose\IBM\Rhapsody\9.0x64\UserShare\Profiles

  3. If you have an existing installation of Syndeia (e.g. Syndeia 3.3), first make sure you have a backup of the lib folders assembled when configuring integrations, and then delete the Syndeia folder under the Profiles folder (as identified above).
     
  4. Extract Syndeia_3.4_for_Rhapsody.zip file to the Profiles folder (chosen in Step 2).

    After extracting, there should be a Syndeia folder directly under the Profiles folder, as shown below.

  5. Copy the library folders assembled when configuring integrationswhen configure integrations, such as libTC, libWC, libMySQL, libNX, and libCreo, to the Syndeia folder, as shown in the figure above.
    1. Note that you will need library folders for only those repositories / tools that you will be connecting to using Syndeia and for which you have a Syndeia license.
    2. The libDOORS and libSimulink folders are automatically installed with Syndeia.
       
  6. Copy the Syndeia license file that your organization obtained from Intercax Support to the .syndeia folder in your user directory.
    1. If you do not have a .syndeia folder, create one in your user directory.
      1. Windows Users: the user directory is often C:\Users\<your login id>
      2. Linux and Mac Users: the user directory is often ~<your login id>

        For example, the location of .syndeia folder on Windows 10 would be C:\Users\<Your user account>\.syndeia
  7. (thumbs up) Congratulations!!!
    You have successfully installed the Syndeia plugin for Rhapsody.
