HP Quality Center 12 LDAP


We have ALM 12. I'm trying to find the site admin schema/ DB / Table name, unfortunately i couldn't find it after looking at "C:\Program Files\HP\ALM\application\20qcbin.war\WEB-INF", there is a siteadmin xml file, which is saying that the db name is : ALM12Site, but i can't find it.

I have to find the DB which is storing the LDAP server name, so i'll be able to change it.


Solution

  • It can be a bit confusing but in ALM you can find almost identical configuration files in \Program Files\.. and \ProgramData\.. It doesn't help that by default \ProgramData is a hidden folder.

    The one in \Program Files\ are a backup copy of files used during install. The working configuration is under \ProgramData\..

    And it's there that you should look for siteadmin.xml

    But, I advise you against it, unless you are knowing precisely what are you trying to achieve. You may make changes to ALM schema which will make it unusable.
