Introduction

Enterprise Sync is a bundle of products that allows you to connect your mainframe Endevor system to an AccuRev system to synchronize the files between the systems. Using AccuRev, you will have file history, visual representations of files navigating through the development process, easy to generate differences reports between file versions, etc.

The bundle is comprised of and requires the following products, some of which must be installed separately:

Server Componets

Micro Focus Mainframe Access Server
Mainframe Access Server is a mainframe server component that communicates with Endevor.
Enterprise Sync Server

The Micro Focus Enterprise Sync Server components synchronize sources and meta data between the SCM on the mainframe and sources managed on a distributed platform. The server components that make up Enterprise Sync include:

Mainframe Access Client
Communicates with Mainframe SCCM through the MFA Server.
AccuRev Client
End-users and client programs perform operations on the AccuRev client. Operations can take place from the command line, AccuRev GUI, Web UI, or through an IDE Plugin. The client process is installed as part of the installation and communicates with the server process.
Micro Focus Connect
Manages and performs the synchronization process.
AccuRev Server
AccuRev is a centralized version control system which uses a client/server model. The AccuRev Server maintains all the source and metadata within a data repository. The data repository is built around a database technology that is transaction-based and manages the tables as append-only. There is a server process installed as part of the AccuRev Server that manages the AccuRev repositories and handles all communication between the server and the AccuRev clients.
