Integrating Rational Team Concert with Rational Asset Manager

Question & Answer


Question

What versions of IBM Rational Team Concert and IBM Rational Asset Manager can be integrated, and what usage scenarios does the integration support?

Answer

The integration supports four usage scenarios:

· Linking assets to Rational Team Concert resources, such as plans and work items.

· Integrating with the Rational Team Concert source control management (SCM) tool in Eclipse. Artifacts of assets that are under source control are baselined and annotated with SCM information. When you import assets that are under source control, you can access content from the Rational Asset Manager server or from the SCM tool.

· Setting up the Rational Team Concert build process to use the Rational Asset Manager Ant libraries so that you can automate the process of working with assets.

· Using Rational Asset Manager OpenSocial gadgets in Rational Team Concert server dashboards

These usage scenarios are available when you integrate Rational Asset Manager with these versions of Rational Team Concert:

· If you use Rational Asset Manager V7.5.0.2, use Rational Team Concert V2.0.0.2 or V3.0.

· If you use Rational Asset Manager V7.5.1 or V7.5.1.1, use Rational Team Concert V2.0.0.2, V3.0 and later or V3.0.1 and later.

· If you use Rational Asset Manager V7.5.1.2, V7.5.2, V7.5.2.1 or V7.5.2.2, use Rational Team Concert V3.0.1 and later or V4.0.1 and later.

Even if you do not integrate your instance of Rational Asset Manager with Rational Team Concert, all instances of Rational Asset Manager V7.5 through V7.5.1.1 include a licensed copy of Rational Team Concert V2.0.0.2. The Rational Asset Manager server uses the included copy of Rational Team Concert to manage the workflows for asset lifecycles. Rational Asset Manager V7.5.1.2 includes a licensed copy of Rational Team Concert V4.0.1.

When you install Rational Asset Manager, during server setup, you can specify whether to use the included instance of Rational Team Concert or use another instance. If you use another instance of Rational Team Concert, use one of these versions:

· For Rational Asset Manager V7.5.0.2, use Rational Team Concert V2.0.0.2, interim fix 003 and later.

· For Rational Asset Manger V7.5.1 or V7.5.1.1, use Rational Team Concert V2.0.0.2, interim fix 006 and later.

· For Rational Asset Manager V7.5.1.2, V7.5.2 or V7.5.2.1, use Rational Team Concert V4.0.1 and later.

· For Rational Asset Manager V7.5.2.2, use Rational Team Concert V4.0.1 and later or V5.0.1 and later.
