Although with the Jazz work items component you can submit and track defects, tasks, and enhancement requests, your team need to also use a ClearQuest user database and work with ClearQuest records directly from the Jazz environment. With the ClearQuest record and Jazz work item bridge, you can create, view, and modify ClearQuest records, run ClearQuest queries, and associate ClearQuest records with Jazz work items, all in the IBM® Rational Team Concert™ Web client. The ClearQuest bridge is similar to the ClearQuest Connector in that with the ClearQuest bridge you can associate ClearQuest records and Jazz work items, but the ClearQuest bridge does not require the creation and maintenance of synchronization rules or the duplication of data in multiple repositories.
As the figure below shows, the ClearQuest bridge involves communication between your Jazz Team Server and your ClearQuest Web Server and ClearQuest user database. Currently, there is a one-to-one mapping between a Jazz project area and a ClearQuest user database.

For details about the prerequisites you must complete before you can use the ClearQuest bridge, see Prerequisites.
For a comprehensive list of the steps required to configure the ClearQuest bridge for use in your production environment, see Configuration checklist.
