Licensing for the Design Management Server is
role based. When you purchase a role-based license for the Design Management Server,
you receive access to some or all of the Design
Management capabilities,
as well as access to the applications in the Rational® solution for
Collaborative Lifecycle Management (CLM).
Client access licenses
When you install the
Design Management Server,
you deploy the
Design
Management capabilities,
in addition to the
Jazz™ Team Server.
You then use activation kits to install client access licenses on
the
Jazz Team Server and
assign these licenses to users so that they can access the
Design
Management capabilities.
The client access licences for the
Design Management Server also
include access to the capabilities in the
CLM applications
for change and configuration management (CCM), quality management
(QM), and requirements management (RM). For more information about
the role-based permissions for these applications, see "
Client access license management overview".
A
client access license for a particular role provides read, write,
and commenting access to some or all of the available capabilities.
You
install the client access license activation kits on the Jazz Team Server,
on the Administration page, in the License Key Management section.
You assign the licenses to users in the Client Access License Management
section of Jazz User Administration
page.
For more information on client access licenses, see the
related information links below.
Role-based client access licenses
The roles
in the following table correspond to the client access licenses that
you can purchase for
Design Management Server.
There are three role-based licenses that provide access to the
Design
Management capabilities:
- Contributor: For extended team members
who need to collaborate on models and designs. The Contributor license
for Rational Software Architect has
the same capabilities as the Contributor license for Rational Team Concert, Rational Quality Manager,
and Rational Requirements Composer.
- Designer (for Rational Software Architect)
or Design Manager (for Rational Rhapsody®):
For design practitioners using Rational Software Architect or Rational Rhapsody to
create models and designs. This practitioner license has additional
access to some of the capabilities from the CCM, RM, and QM applications.
- Design Reviewer: For extended team members
who need to collaborate on models and designs but do not need access
to the additional to capabilities from CCM, RM, and QM applications
that the Contributor license provides. This license is no longer provided
with Rational Software Architect.
Existing users with Rational Software Architect Design
Reviewer licenses can use those licenses with the 4.0 version of Design Management Server;
new users should use the Contributor license.
