What's new
Index improvement- The asset indexer is refactored with a multithreaded mechanism
to improve the performance of Rational Asset Manager.
You can configure the number of the concurrent threads. The maximum
number of concurrent threads depends on the number of CPUs on your
server. The default number is 2.
- You can search assets during the time when the index is being
rebuilt.
Asset download control- IBM Rational Asset Manager provides
download control over assets in the repository. Repository administrators
can protect the assets from excessive download within a specified
period. To learn more about how to control users' asset download,
refer to Controlling asset download.
Usability enhancements- Previewing assets

Relationships page to preview the asset.

A warning message is added that
the data which you entered would be lost when you leave the Submit
an Asset page.

on the search page would be changed after you click the asset.
- Viewing filter descriptions
You can hover over a search filter
on the search page to view the description of the filter.
