Adding StarTeam Source Control Profiles

To create a StarTeam source control profile:

  1. In the menu, click Project:<Project Name> > Project Settings .
  2. Click the Source Control tab. The Source Control page opens, listing all of the source control profiles that have been created for the system.
  3. Click New Profile to open the New Source Control Profile dialog box.
  4. Type a Name for the new profile. This is the name that is displayed in lists where the profiles are available for selection.
  5. Select StarTeam from the Source control system list box.
  6. Type the Hostname of your StarTeam server.
  7. Type the Port that is to be used to connect to the StarTeam server. If the port is not changed, use the default port 49201.
  8. Type a valid Username and Password. These credentials will be used to access your repository.
  9. Specify if the profile supports Encryption.
  10. Optional: Type the Common working folder to which the Silk Central execution server should copy the source files. The working folder must be a local path. For example, C:\TempSources\.
    Warning: It is recommended to leave this field empty and let Silk Central use a temporary working folder instead. Specifying a static working folder can lead to unexpected results when running parallel executions. The temporary location can be queried from the predefined parameter #sctm_source_root_dir.
  11. To use a subfolder of the repository, type the subfolder's Project path. If you leave this field empty, the project path is set to the root directory.
    Note: Clicking Browse clones the repository, which can take some time.
  12. Click OK.

If the trial connection is successful, you are returned to the Source Control page.
