What the SAML do I need to do?
So, what can I do to get this level of security? Your best option is to check the Request For Enhancement (RFE) site to see if someone has already requested that this be required in a future release. If an RFE exists, vote for it. The more votes an RFE has, the more likely it is to be included in a future release. If an RFE does NOT exist, create one and be sure to go to the Service Management Connect (SMC) forum and solicit votes for your enhancement request. Below is information about the RFE process that I provide to customers when a PMR leads to this sort of issue.
You might consider submitting an enhancement request via the Tivo
On the RFE page, there are 2 pick lists under the title Filter the page content by brand and product that will help you start the search process for existing RFEs regarding the TRIRIGA application. Set the left hand pick list to Internet of Things and set the right hand pick list to IBM TRIRIGA Platform. Next to this right hand pick list is an arrow pointing right. Click on it and the list will automatically filter based on the selections in the pick lists. Underneath these pick lists is a search text field. You can enter text there to further refine your search. For this issue, I typed SAML in that field and clicked the Enter key. There are 2 RFE entries listed as a result. If, after reviewing the entries, you determine they do not fit your requirements, create a new RFE. If the existing entries DO fit your requirements, vote for them.
Inside each RFE record is an ID field. This field is immediately below the title of the RFE. In order to solicit votes for your RFE, navigate to the SMC forum for IBM TRIRIGA Platform and create a new forum entry with the title of your RFE. In that forum post, be sure to include the merits of your RFE and provide the ID. This will make it easier for people who want to vote for your RFE to find it via the RFE home page. Remember, the more votes for a particular RFE, the more likely it is to be considered for a future release of the IBM TRIRIGA Platform.

[Eclipse] Auto-lock functionality doesn't work for third party embedded editorsIf you are using RTC's Pessimistic locking feature, it doesn't work for third party editors like Microsoft Office.
Scenario
For the above issue, a defect has been identified with third party editors. Below are links to the related defects:
http
Workaround
--> Open any Microsoft Office extension (.docx) file using "Open with" option in external editor, the file remains in read-only mode and saving change in the files gives an option to do a "Save As", rather than updating the original file.
To summarize, the read-only doesn't work if the file is edited with Eclipse embedded editor, but the same works if the files is opened using an External editor.

Why my IBM TRIRIGA Licenses show Licensed=No in a second application serverThis is for those of you who have more than 1 application server setup! After spinning off the TRIRIGA application server into 2 separate application servers you are checking all to see if the second application server is set as the original one, the Licenses in the second application server show 'No' in the Licensed column in Administration > System > License, but the licenses have not expired.
First thing you try is to use a user id to log into this application server. There is no problem in the front-end application, any users can log into both application servers.
This was observed before as a cache issue. Sometimes during installation of a second application server the licenses at first have a problem fetching the correct status from the database and this information gets stuck into there.
What you need to do is to go to the Administration Console and Clear the Global Cache. Log back into the application and check the Licenses again. In most cases this is resolved as it is just a misalignment from the actual database information and what is cached.
If not, contact IBM support.

Cheers

Getting Started for Gateways in IBM Watson IoT PlatformGetting Started for Gateways in IBM Watson IoT Platform - With the introduction of the concept of gateways to IBM Watson IoT Platform, applications can receive data and control devices which are connecting through a gateway. Gateways are specialization of devices, because they share almost all of their characteristics and behavior with regular devices (events, commands, device management). Gateways have the additional permission to register new devices and act on behalf of a device that is assigned to the gateway. To support gateways a new property was introduced in device type. This new video demonstrates how to get started with Gateways in IBM Watson IoT Platform. Find out more at

TRIRIGA and the BIRT Report that does not run in the Application (but does on BIRT Designer)You are glad that after connecting your Eclipse BIRT environment to your TRIRIGA Database, and using a SQL Query you build your own very first report. You preview it in BIRT and the report runs just fine, pulling data from the database and displaying within the format you set. It is a good looking report you think and my users will love it! Now it is time to see it running in TRIRIGA, so you read the instructions that say you need to import it to Document Manager as a ZIP file to be used in a System Report running an External Query, and you think: Easy! You get back to Eclipse and export the report. There are a lot of options to export it and you go for the "Archive File" one, that gives you the option to select as a zip what is the exact file you need to upload to TRIRIGA Document Manager, how convenient. You import it to TRIRIGA, create a System Report, point to the zip file you imported to Document Manager and the report does not run, throwing an error in the front-end. Depending on the browser it could be an HTTP 500 error or a MID-xxxxxxxxx error. What could be wrong? Well, although BIRT Eclipse gives you the convenient option to export the report as a zip file, that zip file will preserve the folder structure from your Workspace panel (usually on bottom left of Eclipse Report Designer view).
TRIRIGA needs that the .rptdesign file inside the zip is located on the zip file root. If not, the report will not run. See the Bad and Good examples below:
In case you set the BIRT Flags in the Admin Console - Platform Logging and reproduce the issue you will see an error in server.log like this: 2016-04-18 13:11:04,682 ERROR [com
A very amicable message in the logs!

TRIRIGA and the WAS Liberty Profile that does not want to be a serviceWell, you get TRIRIGA 3.4.2 or later to install and see how cool to use the Liberty Profile for WebSphere Application Server (WAS). This lets you install both the web server and TRIRIGA at one strike and self deploys itself from TRIRIGA installer. What an easy deal!
After installing TRIRIGA and the WAS Liberty profile, the user logged into the service and running it cannot log out or the service will be stopped. Many businesses do not allow an Admin user to be logged in indefinitely.
Now you're thinking you have to install all over again in a WAS deployed first. You double check and see WAS Liberty cannot run as a service as a product limitation. What a drag...
Well, there is one workaround you can try. Using the Apache's daemon you can create a Windows service. The following instructions are an idea for how you can implement it, but it depends on your architecture and installation:
Note: If you run into any issues, check the logs in the LogPath directory location for any errors - the errors as listed in the event viewer logs from Windows do not give meaningful errors.
References: There is an RFE to implement this and I encourage you to vote for it: http

Sizing recommendations for planning migration of data from Rational DOORS to Rational DOORS Next GenerationAre you considering migrating your data from Rational DOORS to Rational DOORS Next Generation(RDNG)? Are you looking for guidance and best practice before you begin to be successful first time?
If so, then your starting point is definitely the detailed guidance on developerWorks on how to Migr
New Sizing and Best Practice Guide on Jazz.net's Deployment wiki Since the developerWorks article was published, we realized that more detailed sizing information was required prior to executing the migration of data packages from DOORS 9 to RDNG. We collated pertinent sizing information from the Rati There are significant improvements to the import timings with RDNG 6.0.2 release, so please refer to this article if you are evaluating an existing or future migration as this could indeed be an influencing factor.
The document details: Sizing Guidelines for Rational DOORS Next Generation 6.x Recommendations on the maximum sizes of your modules, projects and repositories so as to maximize your success when importing your packages and working in the future within RDNG.
Hardware considerations The considerations for hardware are simplified from guidance published elsewhere in the Deployment wiki, but here they are explained within the context of how to plan for your new world.
Guidance on how to convert your Rational DOORS modules prior to migration Invariably there will be modules and projects within DOORS 9 which will not match up to the guidance prescribed for RDNG. Use this section to understand how to easily manipulate your data before migrating.
What if the data to be migrated exceeds the recommendations? The guidance is clearly aimed for the general use cases and is very much our strongest recommendation. It is understood that there are very large enterprise requirements management estates out there. It is recommended that you contact IBM if this applies to you.

Jazz architecture: Planning for multiple application server instancesThe Jazz architecture allows for multiple instances of specific application servers, such as the Change and Configuration Management (CCM) application (Rational Team Concert), Quality Management (QM) application (Rational Quality Manager) and Requirements Management (RM) application (DOORS Next Gen). These application servers are registered to a common Jazz Team Server (JTS) to form a CLM Instance. The architecture further allows multiple CLM Instances to be formed. You should be aware of the tradeoffs and architectural considerations when multiple instances are needed in order to scale to support your user population/load.
The following article on jazz.net provides details about application, server and architectural considerations in addition to functional differences that you should review while planning: Planning for multiple Jazz application server instances Tags:  ibm-iot deployment rational-quality-manager clm jazz jrs collaborative-lifecycle-m... iot-support rational-doors-ng rational-team-concert |

Give the power to create baseline to only designated users in IBM Rational DOORSIn DOORS 9, it is not possible via the user interface to manage the "baseline power" for users. But it is possible to modify the original behavior of DOORS by editing a DXL file and by creating a "special" group for those users.
When a user attempts to create a baseline from the UI, this code will be executed and only users in the group will be able to create baseline.

How do you start WAS Liberty as a Windows service for IBM CLMWith the new CLM 6.0.1 and upcoming IBM Rational Collaborative Lifecycle Management (CLM) releases, IBM WAS Liberty has replaced the Apache Tomcat application server. The current documentation will not assist you to configure the WAS Liberty to run as a Windows service.
There is an existing Enhancement Request for the same: Document that running Liberty as a service is not supported (382091)
As a workaround, you can use the Apache Commons Daemon as an option.

What? I don't have a CAD Integrator license?After installing CAD Integrator on a CAD users machine and assigning the appropriate security groups and licenses, does the user get an error indicating that they do not have a valid CAD Integrator license? Do not panic! This blog is meant especially for you.
The likely cause of the problem is that a problem occurred during the license assignment process. First, double check that the users profile contains the license. If it is missing there, be sure to add it. Second, go to License Manager and click on the radio button next to IBM TRIRIGA CAD Inte Tags:  supiwms ibm-tririga cad tririga iot-support ibm-iot |

Where are my CAD graphics?Have you upgraded your IBM TRIRIGA platform only to find that you cannot see any of the graphics that were visible in your previous platform release. If so, you may want to reprocess your drawings.Please note that reprocessing your drawings can take some time, so you might want to plan this process to run during off peak hours.
To reprocess your drawings, follow these steps.
1 - As an application administrator, login to the IBM TRIRIGA Admin Console. 2 - Click on the radio button next to Database Manager 3 - Click on the link titled "Reprocess published drawings".
Under certain conditions, the reprocessing of your CAD drawings may have encountered issues during the upgrade process. It is important to always review the server log file from the 1st server startup after an upgrade. In the case of your drawings, look for "Reprocessing" in the log file. Most of the entries after that line will contain information about the reprocessing of each individual drawing. If a drawing is processed without issue, you should see a series of 7 informational messages starting with "DXF: Processing Header "to "DXF: EOF" if there is a problem during the reprocessing process, you will likely see either an error or warning message between those two informational messages. If that is the case, you will want to follow the steps outlined above once the upgrade processing has completed on that 1st server. Tags:  iot-support ibm-tririga tririga cad supiwms ibm-iot |
