Field Description
MKS Source Setup Field Descriptions
Implementer and MKS Source Integration
MKS Source connection setup
The following fields define the communication parameters that allow Implementer to integrate with
MKS Source.
Integration enabled Specify whether the integration between Implementer and
MKS Source is active.
Yes: The integration is active. Specify Y to activate the
integration.
No: The integration is not active. Specify N to deactivate the
integration. You can also use this setting to save current values
not yet finalized while troubleshooting communication problems.
Communications timeout Number of seconds Implementer waits for a valid response after
contacting MKS Integrity Server running MKS Source. Only used
when MKS Source is used for source archiving.
If communications between Implementer and MKS Integrity Server
are slow, set this to a higher number to prevent time outs during
normal usage, such as if the MKS Integrity Server is available but
not responding in a timely manner due to heavy traffic.
Server IP address or host name of MKS Integrity Server running
MKS Source. Used for all communications between Implementer
and MKS Integrity Server. Must be a host name or IP address, not
a URL that begins with http:// or https://. Can be the same
server or a different server than that specified in the MKS Integrity
Setup panel. Do not enclose the value in quotes.
Server browser port The port number used to communicate to MKS Integrity Server
running MKS Source. Specify a value between 1–65535.
MKS Source User ID User profile that has administrative rights in MKS Source. This
user ID is used to test the connection to MKS Integrity Server, and
is the impersonation user ID used to proxy all commands between
Implementer and MKS Source. Must be the same user ID as
described in “Creating the Integration User” on page 264. Casesensitive
field—the case specified in MKS Source must be
specified here.
Password Password of the MKS Source user ID specified in the previous
field. Non display field that displays as blank when typing the
password value. Case-sensitive field—the case specified in
MKS Source must be specified here.
Base Product project Specify the base product project in MKS Source that all product
subprojects are created under. The project is validated in
MKS Source; thus, it must exist in MKS Source prior to referencing
here. Type the value exactly as it exists in the MKS Source project
directory (including the directory, file name, and file extension), for
example, c:/BaseProductProject/project.pj. a
