You can install ClearQuest 8.0.0.6 by using the 32-bit version of Installation Manager 1.6.2, or the 64-bit version. Installation Manager 64-bit is only required if other Rational products on the same system are installed and managed by using Installation Manager 64-bit, or if you plan to install another Rational product that requires Installation Manager 64-bit. Before installing with Installation Manager 64-bit, review technote 1628641 Considerations when installing IBM Rational ClearCase, ClearQuest, and RequisitePro on Windows with Installation Manager 64-bit.
