Module size

Provide information on the size of Modules in the Database explorer (like Windows explorer). Extension: Capture date created and modified information Might need to make it optional

Document hardware performance benchmarks for DOORS 9 components, similar to what is available for DOORS Next

At the time of writing, DOORS minimum hardware requirements date back some (many) years and are not at all exhaustive as to what performance is recommended for production workloads. Other products in the same group of tools document their performa...

Doors Flexm License timeout option

Customers would like DOORS to support the Flexm License timeout option. Reference: https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/about-doors-license-timeout-option

A download checksum for installation media

The ELM suite has a checksum for installation downloads. This provides confidence that the installation media is not missing files or data. Our IT security guidelines recommend the use of checksums on downloadable media. It is likely that this wil...

DOORS: Users shall be able to edit the ReqIF definition "Name" and "Description" fields

When a user creates a ReqIF definition and clicks OK there is now no way to edit the "Name" and "Description" fields. If the user has made a typo their only option is to delete this ReqIF definition and create a new one. DOORS should allow users t...

Various tasks in the domain of administering a DOORS 9 database (server) may require to switch a database to read-only outside the ordinary access control management workflow. Be it to freeze a specific state of the database / projects / modules o...

Implement identical richtext capabilities between DOORS 9 client and DOORS Web Access, for example RTF colors

Currently RTF in DWA is more limited compared to the DOORS 9 client. For example, text colors that show in the client are not displayed on the web. Similar feature scope for Richtext between the two methods of displaying module data, is desirable.

RDS support for RHEL 8.x

Since SDS - Security Directory Server is available on RHEL 8.x, and SDS is part of RDS - Rational Directory Server, it could be possible to make RHEL 8.x available as operating system also for RDS?

Allow the controlled modification of attribute definitions while some module data is locked for shared edit.

In a high availability around-the-clock scenario, it is not feasible to stop shared editing in order to modify attribute definitions and purge objects. Both types of tasks need to take place within the same time frame. Perhaps the concept of setti...
