Installation scenario walkthroughs

These instructions walk you through four key scenarios for installing Rational® ClearCase® or Rational ClearQuest®.

The instructions consist of a set of steps and supplemental background material. The following table lists the installation scenarios along with the components that each scenario requires.

Note: If you are installing web-based components for your product, you must have a separate version of WebSphere Application Server and IBM HTTP Server installed before beginning your product installation. Version 7 or later is required. For more information on supported configurations, see Prepare the WebSphere Application Server environment for ClearCase and ClearQuest web servers.

Version 8.0 of Rational ClearCase and Rational ClearQuest require the use of Rational License Key Server 8.1.2 and License Key Administrator 8.1.2. For more information, see Rational Common Licensing information.
