1. Introduction
Jazz is IBM’s initiative for improving collaboration and lifecycle tool integration. In order to
evaluate and explore Rational Team Concert, a hub is provided free of charge for university
students.
This document explains how a project for Rational Team Concert can be created in the Jazz hub.
To support team collaboration across multiple platforms and technologies, Rational Team
Concert provides users with an Eclipse-based client interface, a Microsoft Visual Studio client
interface, and a web interface. This document includes the Eclipse and web interfaces only, for
more information on how to install the Microsoft Visual Studio client interface visit
https://jazz.net/projects/rational-team-concert/features/vsclient.
Every member of the team shall create an account in Jazz.net (see section 2). Only the team
lead needs to create a new project (see section 3) and provide access for the rest of the team (see
section 4). The rest of the team can access the project just by logging in to Jazz.net (see section 5).
To configure the Eclipse client see section 6.

5. Access the Project through web interface
The Web client is better suited for casual or occasional users than a client IDE because it does
not require installing any special software on the client machine; all that's needed is a Web
browser. Each Jazz Team Server has a main web page where the user can select a project area and
log in. Once logged in, the user can interact with the Jazz Team Server and browse information in
the Jazz repository, including reading about recent events, entering and updating work items, and
downloading builds.

2. Click on the name of your project.
