This version of the connector is certified with Hub version 6.0(17.0.0)
Unless otherwise specified, for any given MF Connect connector from OpenText, all versions of the connector product that are officially released and supported by it's vendor both four months before the time of the release of the connector as well as at the time of using the connector, are supported by OpenText. Not all product versions will be tested and validated by OpenText for each connector release. Instead, OpenText chooses a subset of versions that we deem representative or most important to run validation and certification tests against. These selected versions are mentioned in the respective connector read-me, clearly identifying them as "validated" or "certified". As stated above, this does not mean that Micro Focus Connect does not support other product versions - it only means that no validation test cycle was executed for the other versions.
This version of the connector supports Agile asset types like Stories and Defects, as well as custom fields and types.
This connector requires at least build 24.1 of Micro Focus Connect and can be configured using the Micro Focus Connect UI.
The thesaurus.properties file should be copied to the Micro Focus Connect's AppData\data folder.
This connector is an update to the installed connector, you should remove (or move to a directory outside of the connectors) and replace the AppData\connectors\mfcConnectorStarteam\mfcConnectorStarteam*.jar file with the one provided.
The following information contains notes regarding installation, but does not replace the entire process.
In order to use this connector, you will need to collect and enter this information in the Micro Focus Connect user interface:
Occasional ConcurrentModificationExceptions may occur in the Micro Focus Connect log. This has no influence on the correctness of the synchronized data.
The StarTeam Connector does not support setting of numeric fields, enumerated fields, or user fields to no-value. For example, if the "other side" has a new story with no-value for "estimated points", the StarTeam Connector will generate an error when attempting to create the story.
When running a Hub to Hub synchronization that contains Agile data with Tag properties, the tag will be created as a Server tag if it does not exist on the opposite side. The Hub connector cannot distinguish between Server and Project tags, and cannot correctly create a new tag to match the source tag’s identity. For example, when using Rhythm, the synchronized Project tag will appear under the Server tags.
