Is there somebody familiar with using RATIONAL Team Concert along with Changeman ZMF?
Is Rational Concert configurable to control package flow in ChangeMan ZMF?

Accepted answer
Basically you need:
- an application server for publishing access to ChangeMan API wrapped by java (sample in http://knowledgebase.serena.com/InfoCenter/index?page=content&id=S139564&token=a3cc0fcd86cb4ac7bbc7d0aa18e7e29a )
- CURL for making REST OSLC calls to RTC (from OMVS)
We also made complex actions from RTC to ChangeMan with a custom application composed by:
- simple java code for sending commands in TCP IP to a ...
- started task (Rexx + socket) submitting ...
- jcl with programs using ChangeMan API
Complexity comes from many actions being asynch.

One other answer
What we have seen with some customers is that they drive changeman operations from RTC work-items workflow actions. Basically the workflow action triggers a build, and provides some context about what to do and it customizes a JCL that does operation on changeman.

Dashboards and work items are no longer publicly available, so some links may be invalid. We now provide similar information through other means. Learn more here.

I am not sure what you mean by package flow in ZMF. Could you refer to any document describing the process?
thanks for your attention Krzysztof.
Rational Concert manual instructs how to integrate it with SCLM (IBM code promotion tool) and it says it's possible to do the same with Changeman (Serena code promotion tool), so people would log on to Rational Concert client residing at their laptop or desk top, and see status of the packages in SCLM or Changeman or Endeavour.
But no instruction is found nowhere related how to setup this linkage between Ration X changeman.
