Rational Asset Analyzer for System z
System Requirements
Rational Asset Analyzer for System z provides in-depth insight into dependencies within and among mainframe and composite applications. Helps reduce the time needed to understand the impacts and risks of changes to complex applications.
With Version 6, WebSphere Studio Asset Analyzer (WSAA) has been renamed Rational Asset Analyzer for System z.

To access from a workstation |
Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.0, or later. Rational Asset Analyzer takes advantage of Adobe technology to render graphics in scalable vector graphics (SVG) format. Currently, the Adobe web browser plug-in for SVG exists in its most robust form only for Internet Explorer |
Any hardware that supports the software |
To access programmatically |
Use the REST interface. If accessing DB2 directly, use any supported DB2 client or other method of issuing SQL commands against the Rational Asset Analyzer repository in DB2 If doing mash-ups or launching the user interface of Rational Asset Analyzer from another program, use the API website. |

If you plan to scan from Serena ChangeMan ZMF, Serena Changeman ZMF V5.3 is required. If you plan to scan from CVS, CVS client 1.11.1.2 (Build 41) is required. If you plan to scan from PVCS (Windows only), PVCS 6.8.0.0 is required. If you plan to scan from ClearCase, ClearCase 2003 is required. The program's specifications and specified operating environment information may be found in documentation accompanying the program, if available, such as a README file, or other information published by IBM, such as an announcement letter. Documentation and other program content may be supplied only in the English language. |

AIX |
Runtime requirements: AIX, V5.2 or V5.3 If you plan to scan distributed assets or deploy WebSphere Studio Asset Analyzer Web applications on AIX, you must have the following installed on AIX: WebSphere Application Server (one of the following): • WebSphere Application Server, V5.1, V6.0.2.15, or V6.1 • WebSphere Application Server Express, V5.1, V6.0.2.15, or V6.1 DB2 Connect Enterprise Edition, V7.02, V8.1, or V9.1 Note: You can use DB2 Connect V7.1 with DB2 Universal Database V8, however, we recommend using DB2 Connect V8, Fixpack 6 Java Runtime Environment (JRE) as supported by WebSphere Application Server (for example JRE, V1.4.2 shipped with WebSphere Application Server, V6.0.1) Use Microsoft Internet Explorer, 6.0, or later. Note: WebSphere Studio Asset Analyzer takes advantage of Adobe technology to render graphics in SVG format. Currently, the Adobe Web browser plug-in for SVG exists in its most robust form only for Internet Explorer. However, when similar support exists for other Web browsers, the WebSphere Studio Asset Analyzer will extend its support to these other browsers. |
