Configuring a lookup service task

You can configure and request a Rational Build Agent service lookup task, also known as a Rational Build Agent loop task service, in the Jazz® web client.

Go to Jazz Administration > Server > Advanced Properties > Rational Build Agent. Here, you can set the following two values:

Rational Build Agent loop task service Contributor ID
This is the ID of the user running the Rational Build Agent loop task service on the server. The default user ID is ADMIN.
Restriction: When you request the Rational Build Agent loop task service, you must use the default user ID: ADMIN.
Note: Make sure that the user running the Rational Build Agent loop task service has permission to perform build actions. The following conditions must be met before a user can perform build actions:
  • The user must be a member of the specified project and team areas.
  • The user must be set to a specific role in the specified project and team areas. If you do not set a role, the default is everyone.
  • The user role must have full permissions for build actions for the specified project and team areas. You can define the permissions here: Project Area > Process Configuration > Team configuration > Permissions.
  • The user must be assigned to either a Developer or Build System Client Access License (CAL).
Rational Build Agent loop task service interval time
This value defines the interval running time, in seconds, of the Rational Build Agent loop task service. The default value is 15 seconds.
