Using Syndeia with DOORS-NG

Connector-specific Libraries

For connecting and communicating with DOORS-NG, Syndeia already comes with the necessary libraries (such as OSLC-related jars) that are installed in the libDOORS folder under the Syndeia plugin for SysML tools. No additional user action is required.

Connector Authentication

When the Repository Manager in the Syndeia Dashboard is used to create a new connection to a DOORS-NG Repository, follow these conventions for the fields of the Creation form:

• Name: The Repository Name can be any convenient and intuitive name phrase. The string is not used in any URLs.
• URL: this has to be the resolvable URL for the DNG “rm” service page.
  • https://CLM_HOST.DOMAIN.COM:9443/rm
    • The proper scheme is entered, HTTP or HTTPS
    • The proper hostname is used
    • The open, allocated port is used (usually 80 for HTTP and 9443 for HTTPS)
    • The right route to the DNG RM application is included
    • No firewall is blocking the traffic from the host running Syndeia Plugin or Syndeia Cloud and the DOORS-NG server
    • The Java Virtual Machine that is executing the Syndeia Plugin or Syndeia Cloud trusts the SSL certificate used by the DOORS-NG server
• User / Password: these are Basic Authentication user and password credentials.
  • If the Jazz server is connected to the corporate LDAP server, the user’s company-wide account info can be used. If not, the user and password is whatever has been provisioned in Jazz’s IBM Web Service or Tomcat user files.
