System Requirements for IBM Rational Systems and Software Engineering (SSE) 6.0

Always up-to-date system requirement reports can be dynamically generated using the Software Product Compatibility Reports (SPCR) tool.

This is the list of system requirements for Systems and Software Engineering (SSE) 6.0 incorporating IBM Rational Collaborative Lifecycle Management (CLM) 6.0 and other products:

Product	SSE 6.0 Version
Rational DOORS and DOORS Web Access (DWA)	9.6.1
Rational DOORS Next Generation (RDNG) (Part of CLM)	6.0
Rational Quality Manager (RQM) (Part of CLM)	6.0
Rational Team Concert (RTC) (Part of CLM)	6.0
Jazz Reporting Service (JRS) (Part of CLM) including Data Collection Component (DCC), Data Warehouse (DW), Lifecycle Query Engine (LQE), Report Builder (RB) and ALM Cognos Connector	6.0
Jazz Foundation (JAF)	6.0
Rational Rhapsody	8.1.3
Rational Rhapsody Design Manager	6.0
Rational Engineering Lifecycle Manager (RELM)	6.0

Please Note: New configuration management capabilities are available in CLM 6.0 and the associated Rational solution for systems and software engineering (SSE) 6.0, which include RDNG, RQM, RTC and Rational Rhapsody Design Manager. To activate the configuration management capabilities, Rational DOORS Next Generation and Rational Quality Manager require a special, no-cost activation key. Please see Enabling configuration management in CLM 6.0 applications for more information.

These system requirements are broken down into various components. These are the most commonly supported platforms and middleware, for additional options please refer to the individual product system requirements.

General notes

• The system requirements for the previous releases of SSE 5.0, 5.0.1, 5.0.2 were published in this article, and for previous releases of CLM 5.0, 5.0.1, 5.0.2 were published in this article.

Please Note: Starting in CLM 5.0.2, Lifecycle Project Administration (LPA) is now a component of the Jazz Team Server (JTS). Prior to 5.0.2, it was a separate application. Because of this change, some steps of the upgrade procedure have changed. Please see Migrating the LPA application from 4.0.x, 5.0 or 5.0.1 to 5.0.2 or higher.

For platform pressures (enhancements and more) please see the CLM Platform Plans and Pressures Dashboard.
