Before you can design or develop your application with
Rational Software Modeler, you must install and configure it. You
might also need to migrate or import any existing data that you
created with a previous version or with other tools.
You can access the installation guide for information
about product installations, requirements, limitations, and optional features.
If you have data that you created with a previous version of the
Rational modeling tools, you can migrate your data for continued
development on the Rational Software Development Platform.
Important: To migrate from Rational Rose models, Rational
XDE models, or WebSphere Business Integration (WBI) models, you
must first install the Rose import, XDE import, or WBI import feature.
Install the feature as an optional download by using the Rational
Product Updater. You can then use the tutorials, samples, and help
topics to get started.
