Rational® Asset Manager server requires the Rational License Server to distribute license keys to clients.
- Use Rational License Server for Windows 7.0.1 or 7.1.
- Use Rational License Server for UNIX and Linux 7.0.0.1.
In this release, Rational Team Concert is a required component that you must install as part of the Rational Asset Manager installation. Rational Team Concert requires an additional 250MB+ of disk space for the server files, and the Rational Team Concert database needs 5GB+ of free space.
You cannot install Rational Asset Manager into an existing Rational Team Concert server, nor can you update Rational Team Concert in the Rational Asset Manager 7.2 server.
In a WebSphere network deploy environment, Rational Team Concert cannot be deployed onto clusters; Rational Team Concert has to be deployed on an application server only.
This release supports IPV6 host names but does not support IPV6 addresses.
If you are using IPV6, use host names to specify the Rational Asset Manager path for Web and Web services, and also for the Rational Team Concert connection.
