Requesting support of ALM version 17.1 with HP Quality Center Interface

Customer is planning an upgrade and requests support of HP Quality Center Interface 3.6.1.4 with ALM version 17.1. QCI currently supports ALM version 15 and there have been two major ALM releases since version 15.

(optionally) Store filter and view settings with a baseline

Baselines store data. But they do not store the views and filters and their settings at the time the baseline was taken / current data. This creates issues down the line when views and filters change or get removed. It would be preferable to store...

Stop creation of DOORS Links as a default

The default when a Database is set up is for links to be collected in a default LM called DOORS Links. Pleas stop this from being the default. I t will then encourage users to THINK about their linking relationships..

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

DOORS Server badly needs a rollback / undo feature for failed transactions beyond the backup/current/new data file concept currently in use

The connection between DOORS Client and DOORS Server is prone to outages by the nature of its design. DOORS Clients contain most of the application logic, DOORS server has the storage abilities. The transfer of new / edited / processed data betwee...

Add means to update / modify baseline access controls in limited scenarios.

Static / frozen Access Control Lists block baselines from being accessed on different - or same but evolved, databases, where users and groups differ / have changed. This is especially an issue when a module with baselines is restored from an arch...

To address multi site user bases working on DOORS data, add a feature that allows for multisite database provision, data replication and caching.

Multi Site user bases can sometimes be brought closer to their DOORS server by using Terminal Server or Citrix. In some cases connections may be even unsuitable for those approaches (latency, HOPS). Since it is increasingly not the case, that peop...

Add a facility to restart the DOORS database server Windows service from within the admin tools (dbadmin / dbsadmin).

Currently only a 'killserver' command is available. Restarting the windows service for doorsd.exe / the DOORS DB server still requires (manual) access to Windows Server admin tools. Such access is increasingly blocked / restricted and typically no...

Add the ability to run multiple DXL Service scripts in parallel for functionality that mimics 'server side DXL'.

Unlike most client/server applications, DOORS 9 has most of the logic on the client side, and little to no automation / scripting / maintenance features on the server side. DOORS DXL Services use DOORS Web Access to offer an interface to DOORS via...

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...
