There are two different ways to install the Rational Team Concert™ client.
The Jazz™ Team Server, Rational Team Concert client, Build System
Toolkit, ClearCase® Connector, ClearQuest® Connector and
other incubator files can be downloaded from http://jazz.net. To purchase Rational Team Concert,
go to http://www.ibm.com/software/awdtools/rtc/,
where you can download an installable image or order a DVD.
Choose one of the installation methods:
- Download a complete .zip file and extract it to a working location.
- Download an executable file that will run the IBM® Installation
Manager launchpad program to guide you through the install process.
Note: The
Installation Manager has a local and Web installation. The local installation
downloads everything you need and can be installed without an Internet
connection. The Web installation offers a smaller download and requires
an Internet connection during the installation process. The end result
is identical, only the installation process is different.
Note: If Security-Enhanced Linux® (SELinux)
is enabled, you must disable it or change the security
context of the Java Runtime Environment (JREs) to allow text relocation
in order to install and run Rational Team Concert. For more information,
see Installing Rational Team Concert with Security-Enhanced Linux.
Note: If
you plan to install Rational Team Concert into
an existing eclipse based product (sometimes referred to as shell
sharing), you should use the Installation Manager install method.
The Installation Manager simplifies shell sharing by allowing you
choose an existing eclipse instance to install the client into.
