Licensing for Rhapsody Model Manager

Rhapsody Model Manager has two different server deployment modes - Model Management and Model and Code Management. The mode that you choose determines what licenses are required. You select the server mode during installation. Afterward, if you wish to upgrade to Model and Code Management, you can do so by modifying the relevant setting on the Advanced Properties page.

Model Management Server

This option entitles you to perform configuration management operations on your Rhapsody models but not on code or any other artifacts. When the Change and Configuration Management (CCM) application is purchased and deployed as a model management server, you are only entitled to use the CCM application for Rhapsody model management. When you deploy in this mode, a Rhapsody user consumes a Rhapsody Model Manager Systems and Software Engineer license.

Model and Code Management Server

This option entitles you to perform all the configuration management (CM) operations that are supported by EWM, including CM operations on both Rhapsody models and code. When the CCM application is purchased and deployed as a model and code management server, you are entitled to use the CCM application for:

  • Rhapsody model management
  • Code management
  • Performing build operations
  • Using the integrations with Rational® ClearCase®/Rational ClearQuest® and Git
  • Leveraging distributed source control
  • Historical trend reporting for Source Control Metrics

When you deploy in this mode, a Rhapsody user consumes a Rhapsody Model Manager Systems and Software Engineer license and an Engineering Workflow Management Developer license.
