Issue/Introduction

Can the connections from ARD to TDM use Integrated Security (Active Directory)? Are there any specific settings on the ARD side of this equation that we need to do to make this happen. Parameters in XML file that need to be changed?

Environment

Release :

Component : CA Agile Requirements Designer

Resolution

Since ARD uses the TDoD Service Layer for the connection to the gtrep database, all the configuration would be on the TDM side, so you would need to: 

1.  Ensure the gtrep database is configured for Integrated Security (https://docops.ca.com/ca-test-data-manager/4-8/en/installing/install-test-data-manager/enable-integrated-security-for-repository-access-in-datamaker.html) 
   
   
2.  Configure the TDoD Service Layer to use AD (https://techdocs.broadcom.com/us/en/ca-enterprise-software/devops/test-data-management/4-8/administrating/datamaker-administration/security/active-directory-integration.html) 

 

 There is nothing to do on the ARD side.
