You can calculate the number of MultiSite licenses you need by determining how many developers will access replicated Rational ClearQuest databases. If all developers will access these databases, you need the same number of Rational ClearQuest MultiSite licenses as Rational ClearQuest licenses. If some developers will not access replicated databases, you can purchase fewer MultiSite licenses.
For example, a company has two sites, with 20 developers at site A and five developers at site B. The company has three Rational ClearQuest databases at site A; two will be replicated to site B and one will not be replicated. Five developers at site A will access only the unreplicated database, and the other 15 will work in all databases. Therefore, the company needs to purchase the following number of licenses:
Site | Number of Rational ClearQuest licenses | Number of MultiSite licenses |
---|---|---|
A | 20 | 15 |
B | 5 | 5 |
