Adding server connections
You need to add a connection to access servers that Helix ALM projects are stored on.
1. Choose File > Connect to Server to open the login dialog box.
2. Click Setup.
The Setup Server Connections dialog box opens.
3. Click Add.
The Add Helix ALM Server dialog box opens.
4. Enter a Server name.
Use a unique name to easily identify the server. For example, use your team name instead of a generic name, such as server1.
5. Enter the Server address for the computer the Helix ALM Server application is installed on and the Port number.
Helix ALM clients connect to the server on this port via TCP/IP. Valid values are 1-65535.
Note: If RSA key exchange is enabled for the server, click Import to import the server settings instead of manually entering the information. Select the XML file and click Open. The Server address, Port, and Public key fingerprint fields are automatically populated. The public key is required to connect to the server. See Configuring RSA key exchange.
6. Click OK.
The server connection is added. You return to the Setup Server Connections dialog box.
7. To reorder the servers, select a server and click Top, Move Up, Move Down, or Bottom.
You may want to move the servers you access most frequently to the top of the list.
8. Click Close when you finish.
