Why are my DCC jobs failing on 6.0.1?

Everything else with my 6.0.1 installation is now successful and complete up to DCC, but the DCC jobs are failing on their first run.
I see error messages like:
Error 500: CRRCD1500E An exception org.apache.http.HttpException was caught in the class com.ibm.rational.datacollection.common.authentication.DCCHttpClient

none of which make sense as everything else was fine.
I also notice that when DCC is running, the CPU usage spikes to 100%, or very close to it.

I have JTS, RTC, RM, DNG, DCC, JRS, GC, LDX and LQE installed on a VM

We very highly recommend to install DCC on it's own server, even if for evaluation purpose.  DCC was designed to take avantage of parallel threads and will consume as much resouces it can to run the data collection jobs as fast as it can. As such, DCC wasn't intended to be installed on the same server as other CLM applications
It looks like it was using so many resouces from the machine that even basic communication between apps wasn't possible.

If you must stick with a single server, we recommend at MINIMUM 6CPU and 16GB RAM, but you may still continue to run into memory issues or resource contention.
You should also make sure to run the DCC jobs at a time when no one would be logged on to the system.
