Files in the Classes Folder

Most of the configuration files on the Serena Release Manager server are located under the rlm Web service folder in the WEB-INF\classes folder. For example:

C:\Program Files\Serena\common\tomcat\6.0\webapps\rlm\WEB-INF\classes

The configuration file names and purpose are given in the following table.

File Name

Purpose

alf-client-connection.properties

Use this file to specify credentials for the ALF server to be used for notifications sent from the Serena Release Automation server. When the automation deployment task is completed, Serena Release Manager sends an ALF event to SBM server. This requires the credentials to access the ALF server, because Serena Release Automation isn't implemented to use SSO. See Configuring Connections using the Release Manager Configurator.
