EWM Overview

Note: All of the following diagrams, depicting facets of EWM, are copied from the developer works article.
This image shows the architecture of EWM.

Regarding the preceding diagram, the users need to use one of the EWM client options to work with their source repository stored on a Jazz® team server. The RTC2AD tool uses the SCM command line interface (CLI) of EWM, depicted at the lower left corner of the diagram.

On Windows, the EWM CLI is named scm.exe. For a complete reference, including examples, see Source control command line reference.

It provides nearly every function that is available through the EWM Eclipse Client and so allows scripted interactions with EWM. This tool is the core of the script that provides RTC2AD integration.
