clearcase-ucm

I wants to migrate projects form CC to Git. I'm looking for guidelines or recommendation how to do it (not technical methods). for example, if I have 5 UCM components, do I need to create repository for each component or to create one repository with 5 folders? I'm familiar with CC methods. Do you have some relevant links? VonC You have some guidelines in my old answer " ClearCase to Git migration " (2014), but more generally, I would add (2016): ClearCase being centralized, there is no limit in size for a Vob or even an UCM component (be it an UCM Vob, or a top folder within an UCM Vob). So

I'm trying to delete a single version-controlled file in ClearCase. I already know that I'm supposed to check out the parent directory and its checked out. I don't know if I'm supposed to check out the file I going to delete. If I don't check out the file I get the error: cleartool: Error: Not a vob object: "MyFileName". If I do check out the file I get: cleartool: Error: Element "MyFileName" has checkouts. So ClearCase knows it's one of its files – but it doesn't want to delete it. I'm just baffled. I've already updated and rebased repeatedly. How do I move forward here? VonC If you see that

In my project we have situations where we branch off from some Mainstream for important milestones like Beta and Release Candidates. Once we ship the builds to customers, we merge code back to mainstream. This is a simple delivery operation without a rebase. Now, there are also scenarios when we need to merge some very old stream(almost obsolete) to the Mainstream. I have found two options available: 1)Deliver to Alternative Target 2)Merge Manager The option 1) is not allowed in our project. My question is: What is the difference between the two and why should one be preferred over the other?

This is a follow up question to this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/9579131/1204799 "It is best to create root-based components" If I have several standalone applications (which means their development and deployment are independent), shouldn't I create different VOB to accommodate them? What I'm doing now is that, I have one single PVob, which contains a few UCM projects, each UCM project has its own Vob and baseline component(a component without Vob). Am I doing it the wrong way? Updated at Mar-7 16:29 After taking your advice, this is what I am trying to do now: I created a single PVOB

A new UCM project was created with multiple baselines configured When i am trying to checkout files from particular component , I was not allowed to checkout and it said may be the stream will be read-only. I am able to checkout other component files in the stream. So i tried to run the following command cleartool lsstream -view "MyBuildView" -l Output had many things and the baseline related information i have copied below. I am able to see that the component3 is non-modifiable as also it is not there in recommended baseline. (i added it separately as while creating the project it was missed)

I have created a symbolic link (see below) to a version controlled file from a different vob ( VOB_II ) and the file is visible from a dynamic view whereas it’s not visible from the UCM snapshot view. A.txt --> ..\..\..\VOB_II\SampleDir\A.txt I have the following selection and load rules. element \VOB_II\SampleDir\A.txt ...\branch1\LATEST load \VOB_II\ SampleDir Any ideas why the file is not getting loaded in the snapshot view? I could not figure out what’s wrong. Any help or inputs are much appreciated. VonC First, do a cleartool ls in C:\path\to\my\view\VOB_II\SampleDir The status can

There is a problem in importing a packet in Clearcase replica. We researched a lot to resolve the issue, but as per IBM this is a bug in a particular version of clearcase. So if there is any way to skip importing that particular packet,that would really help us in resolving the sync issue. Issue : [ http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg1PM53060] Our vob servers are already already on the version which as per above tech note has a fix for the issue, still the issue persists Not that I know of. The syncreplica documentation does mention it "skips" packets only when: > the update
