Rational Engineering Lifecycle Manager and Jazz Team Server generate absolute URIs to resources that are used for the following purposes: stored artifacts, mail notifications, feeds, copying items to the system clipboard, web access, and for stable resource identification for all applications. These URIs are rooted by a "Public URI" that is declared for the application or Jazz Team Server.
In many instances, these generated URIs persist in the repository databases because various stored resources contain URI links between them and outbound links to resources on other applications and servers. These URIs might also be referred to in contexts that are outside of the local network. For example, a URI might be referred to from another Internet domain or outside a corporate firewall.
You must choose a public URI that is fully qualified and accessible from anywhere in the network where users need to connect. If necessary, a URI that is based on a stable host name can be rerouted through a domain name server (DNS).
The public URI must be configured while Jazz Team Server and the applications are set up. The public URI can be set, validated, and tested in the Jazz Team Server setup wizard.
