Is it possible to use CMVC with RQM
I have read that there limitation with using CMVC with RQM. Currently, our code is checked into CMVC and or defects are opened in the tooling as well. Unfortunately, the team will not be able to move to RTC however will like to still use RQM. We will like to know if there is anyway of linking defects created in CMVC to Test Execution Records and TestCases in RQM.
Thank you very much.

Not that I am aware (nothing on jazz.net/CLM 2011 product documentation). However, it would be an interesting to write an OSLC CM V2 (http://open-services.net/bin/view/Main/CmSpecificationV2) service provider for CMVC, which could be configured in RQM 3.0.1 as a defect provider, similar to CCM/RTC (http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/clmhelp/v3r0m1/topic/com.ibm.rational.test.qm.doc/topics/t_config_rtc_defects_overview.html).
Currently there is no way to link your CMVC defects to RQM test execution records directly. AS ponited out in the previous post no OSLC CM servcies provider available for CMVC and I know of now work (funded or not funded) that is being done in that area.
There is a CMVC-RTC connector available to IBM internals which now supports two way synchronization of defects between CMVC and RTC which now supports RTC 3.x.
This may or may not be of interest to you depending on if you want to introduce RTC into your environment or not.
By the way, this CMVC-RTC connector also provides a migration path from CMVC to RTC for SCM and Defects/Features and Users
