There is a known issue with TeamFocus 2008 R2 that impacts the scalability and performance of tasks in the WBS pages, Gantt charts, and Agile views. Borland recommends that the following customers deploy TeamFocus 2008 and delay deployment of TeamFocus 2008 R2:
- Customers that extensively use the WBS pages and Gantt charts. This includes new customers and existing Tempo 2007 R2 customers who plan to migrate to TeamFocus.
- Agile customers with more than 20 Agile teams.
Top
International Limitation
There are known issues with TeamFocus 2008 R2 that impact the German and French locales. For best results, customers should avoid using the German and French locales.

| |
Description: |
If you have multiple repository connections for a project, when you add a new story directly to a sprint by using the right pane of the Sprint Planning page, the repository connection from the default backlog is always displayed, by default, in the Link list box. You might expect that if you add a different backlog for the same project with a different default, that it might be selected, instead. |
|
Work Around: |
When you add a story by using the Sprint Planning page, check the Link list box in the Add Story dialog box to ensure that TeamFocus shows the repository connection in which you wish the story to be saved. Select a different repository connection, if necessary. |

TeamFocus does not support owner field in StarTeam requirement
CR #: 1,890
| |
Status: 2a. Open
| |
Description: |

| |
Status: 2a. Open
| |
Description: |
If you change the collection time of the Burndown Chart, sometimes the correct time does not display in the confirmation message. For example, if you modify the collection time on July 07 to be 03:15 AM, you are indicating the next collection time will occur on July 08 at 03:15 AM because 03:15 AM has already passed for July 07. However, the confirmation message reads: "Successfully saved and rescheduled the burndown data collection time. Next scheduled time is Mon Jul 07 03:15:00 CDT 2008." |

CR #: 2,004
| |
Status: 2a. Open
| |
Description: |

When a story is added through TeamFocus, the correct owner for the story does not appear in CaliberRM
CR #: 2,060
| |
Status: 2a. Open
| |
Description: |
If a user enters a story using TeamFocus and stores the story in a CaliberRM repository, the owner displays as an administrator (in CaliberRM) rather than the user that entered the story. TeamFocus is coded so that every story or requirement added through TeamFocus shows the owner in CaliberRM as admin; therefore, this presents a problem if there is no user with the user name of admin.
|
|
Work Around: |
Add an administrative user (admin) if one does not exist. |
|
Caliber user stories with special characters such as @ do not save
CR #: 2,070
| |
Status: 2c. Limitation
| |
Description: |
When using CaliberRM, if you type the "@" character between text, because the editor thinks an email address is being specified, LegatoPPM creates a link to that email address. This causes the HTML editor to add an additional "target" attribute to the link in the HTML rich text. This in turn breaks the parser in Caliber which throws the exception. Consequently, you cannot use the "@" character between text when using CaliberRM as an external repository. |
|
Work Around: |
If you type the "@" character between text and the editor thinks an email address is being specified, you must delete the text. |
|
Story Tree displays deleted user stories
CR #: 2,076
| |
Status: 2c. Limitation
| |
Description: |
User stories continue to display on the Story Tree tab after they are deleted. |
|
Work Around: |
No work around. |
|
Stories with changed project links
CR #: 2,078
| |
Status: 2a. Open
| |
Description: |
When a backlog is synced to an erroneous project repository connection, the erroneous connection should be deleted and the backlog should be edited to remove the link and re-synced to remove the associated stories. The user can then create a new project link and associate it with the backlog and resync. |
|
Work Around: |
No work around. |
|
Extraneous Values are showing up in LegatoPPM Enumeration Mapping dialog box that are not listed in the CaliberRM's enumeration field values
CR #: 2,100
| |
Status: 2c. Limitation
| |
Description: |
When using CaliberRM to map values for fields of enumerated types, the Enumeration Mapping dialog box in LegatoPPM might include enumeration values that have been deleted from Caliber. |
|

|
Work Around: |
Log out and try again. |
|
Error is not clear when you attempt to create two identical repository connections
CR #: 2,287
| |
Status: 2b. Evaluation
| |
Description: |
If you attempt to create a repository connection, that already exists, to a repository (with the same name as the existing repository connection, which LegatoPPM does not allow), an error occurs, as expected. However, if you subsequently attempt to create another repository connection to the same repository (with a different name as the existing repository connection), the same error occurs again (with the original name displayed again). LegatoPPM does not allow two repository connections to the same repository; however, the error messages that display during the documented scenario are not clear. |
|
Work Around: |
No work around. |

|
Work Around: |
No work around. |
|
Task card not updated when repository is synchronized
CR #: 2,445
| |
Status: 2c. Limitation
| |

Unable to create tasks from LegatoPPM for StarTeam repository when using German locale
CR #: 2,539
| |
Status: 2b. Evaluation
| |
Description: |
When using the French or German locale, you cannot edit user story or task core fields that are enumerated and have them correctly sync back to Team Focus.
When using the French or German locale, we recommend you create UDA fields in the external repository. |
|
Work Around: |
Do not rename the default Status UDA enumeration values in StarTeam |
|
Project deletions are allowed when a project has repository connections that have been synced
CR #: 2,554
| |
Status: 2b. Evaluation
| |
Description: |
Documentation states that you cannot delete projects once repository connections are established and synchronized; however, this functionality is allowed by LegatoPPM. Borland recommends that you do not delete projects with established repository connections. As a consequence, none of the associations are removed when you delete a project; therefore, orphaned data results. |
|
Work Around: |
Limit the number of users who have the privilege to delete projects. |
|
Negative values for spent time
CR #: 2,597
| |
Status: 2a. Open

CR #: 2,598
| |
Status: 2a. Open
| |
Description: |

|
Item Page: ALM connections - Error loading StarTeam change requests
CR #: 2,617
| |
Status: 2c. Limitation
| |
Description: |
If you attempt to create an ALM metric for defect counts by using an ALM connection of type "Change Request," an error might occur when using custom values for enumerated fields in StarTeam. This is due to the fact that LegatoPPM does not have a way to map enumeration values for enumerated fields such as Status for change requests. The Borland Open ALM Framework expects the following standard enumeration values for a field such as Status: "No," "Yes." If the enumerated values are custom for this type of field, LegatoPPM does not support them. |
|
Work Around: |
The CRs in StarTeam should have the following (default) enumeration values:
CR Priority:
--------------
No, Yes
CR Status:
-------------
New, Open, In Progress, Cannot Reproduce, As Designed, Fixed, Documented, Is Duplicate, Deferred, Verified Cannot Reproduce, Verified As Designed, Verified Fixed, Verified Documented, Verified Is Duplicate, Verified Deferred, Closed Cannot Reproduce, Closed As Designed, Closed Fixed, Closed Documented, Closed Is Duplicate, Closed Deferred
If these standard enumeration values are disabled and new enumeration values are used, the CRs cannot be retrieved from the links. |
|

Changing the duration for manually distributed planned hours
CR #: 2,097
| |
Status: 2c. Limitation
| |
Description: |
If you add days to a saved task while retaining the original span of days, the application keeps the planned hours mode as Manually Distributed Hours and adds the new days as cells populated with 0.00 in the table. For example, if your task originally started on 7/7/08 and ended on 7/14/08 and you change the start date to 7/5/08 and the completion date to 7/17/08, the application adds the new days to the table because the original span of days (7/7/08 to 7/14/08) is included. However, if the original span of days for the saved task changes, the application reverts the planned hours mode to Manual Hours and displays the manually distributed total in the Value field. For example, if your forty hour task originally started on 7/7/08 and ended 7/14/08 and you change the start date to 7/8/08 and the completion date to 7/13/08, the application reverts the planned hours mode to Manual Hours and displays 40 in the Value field because the original span of days (7/7/08 to 7/14/08) is no longer included.

The lead lag for dependencies overrides the Front Load adjust start date
CR #: 2,563
| |
Status: 2c. Limitation
| |
Description: |
If you are using Front Load Available to schedule dependent tasks and you are adjusting the start date for available resources, the lead lag setting for the dependency overrides the adjusted start date. For example, if the first Front Loaded task ends on 8/25/08 and the assigned resource has no more capacity for that day, the Front Load adjustment for available resources would require the dependent task to start on 8/26/08. However, if the lead lag setting for that dependent task is set to 0, then the dependent task starts on 8/25/08 because the lead lag overrides the adjusted start date. |

Known Borland Open ALM Framework (BOAF) Issues and Limitations
Synopsis |
The operating system (OS) region codes of LegatoPPM and all applications providing artifacts to LegatoPPM, must be identical. |
CR #: 3163 |
|
Status: 2c. Limitation |
|
Description |
When LegatoPPM attempts to synchronize artifacts from an application, such as Borland StarTeam or Borland CaliberRM, whose OS region code differs from the OS region code on the LegatoPPM server, the synchronization fails. |
Workaround |
Only register an ALM repository if its application is running on an OS whose region code matches the OS region code on the LegatoPPM server.
Once an ALM repository is registered with LegatoPPM, do not modify the OS region code of the LegatoPPM server or of the ALM application server. |
