Chapter 3. Installing this product as part of IBM Rational Suite In this release of IBM Rational Suite, the products offered can only be installed individually. You can no longer install a collection of Rational products as a single Rational Suite. The products are installed separately to support patching and upgrading. If you are installing Rational products for the first time, follow the instructions in the installation guide for each product that you install. If you have installed a Rational product that was a part of Rational Suite, review the upgrade section of this guide carefully. Version 7.0 is a major release that includes changes to installation and other operating processes, dependencies between products, and interoperability with product integrations. In some cases, tasks must be performed in a specific sequence, for example, upgrading server components before upgrading clients. As of version 7.0, all Rational products installed on a computer must be the same version. How different versions are removed depends on which versions are installed. v If you installed multiple Rational products as part of Rational Suite, and those products are version 2003.06.xx, installing version 7.0 of any product uninstalls all products in Rational Suite, not just the one you are upgrading. After installing a product in the current release, you must reinstall all other version 7.0 Rational products that you use. v If you installed multiple Rational products as part of Rational Suite, and those products are version 2002.05.00 or earlier, you must uninstall all other Rational products that you use and reinstall them individually. v If you installed multiple Rational products not as part of Rational Suite, when you install version 7.0 of any product, the other products are not uninstalled. You must install and upgrade each product separately. Site defaults file required for each product You can no longer use the Site Preparation wizard to create a single site defaults file that installs multiple products of Rational Suite. For version 7.0, you must create and run a site defaults file for each product. Change to search order for license keys If you have a license for a previous release of Rational Suite, that license is valid in the current release, but the search order for the license key has changed. In earlier releases, when a product from Rational Suite was installed, the Rational License Key Administrator (LKAD) application tried to find a license key that corresponded to Rational Suite. If such a key was not available, LKAD searched for a key that corresponded to the product itself. In version 7.0, LKAD looks for the product-specific license key first. You can still use the License Usage Mapper in LKAD to change this search order or have the application not search for a Rational Suite key.
