IBM Academic Initiative Program

Hello,

we are currently using a beta of Jazz for some research projects. For the future, we would also like to use this for our development. Therefore the following question arises: Will Jazz be available through the IBM Academic Initiative Program?

Best regards,

Hi

You probably saw the message about using RTC 1.0 in academic research project on https://jazz.net/community/research/projects.jsp as you are using the beta already.

I have seen something about making RTC available on the IBM Academic Initiative, but need to check on the details to confirm this. You may want to check with your IBM contact for your institution too.

Is this for teaching, research, or something else?

Hello,

we are doing both, research and teaching in our Software Engineering course. And we are little bit further now: We have installed the final release of Team Concert and injected the licenses, we were able to download from the IBM Academic Initiative. But now we are wondering: in sum, we have licenses for only 13 developers, which is - of course - not enough for doing research and teaching. Just image classes with more than 13 students.

Are we doing anything wrong? Or did we missunderstand the license model?

Best regards,

fyi

Obviously we were limited by the database. We had Derby installed, and with DB2 Express we are now able to use 250 licenses.

Glad you got this sorted out.

This is a limit (for Derby) that seems to have escaped people (including me until I reread some of the info).

All versions of RTC (and I mean Express-C, Express, Standard) limit the number of users for Derby to 10 clients only. You need to move to another database (Oracle, DB2) to raise the user limit.

RTC is part of the Academic Initiative program. Faculty participants are entitled to use RTC Standard edition at no charge, and student participants are entitled to use RTC Express at no charge. For more information, please visit: http://www-304.ibm.com/jct09002c/us/en/university/scholars/products/rational/

Hope this helps,

Robyn
