You must have WebSphere Application Server installed before you can install or upgrade Rational ClearCase or ClearQuest web server components. You can install WebSphere Application Server V7.0 or V8.0. When you install the application server, you also install the IBM HTTP Server for managing requests between Rational client applications and the corresponding web server.
To support flexibility in deployment, installation of WebSphere Application Server and IBM HTTP Server is no longer integrated in the Rational ClearCase and Rational ClearQuest product installation process. You must complete the WebSphere Application Server and IBM HTTP Server installation process before installing ClearCase or ClearQuest web-based components. You can also use an existing instance of WebSphere Application Server or IBM HTTP Server if they meet version requirements.
