We are using ClearCase UCM, and someone asked me if there is a way to get all of the versions from a specific time. Example: Work is being done on a development stream. Someone broke the build, but the previous baseline is too far back and we would lose too much work. They would like to get the versions of every file that was there from last Thursday at 11:00am. Is this possible, even if it hasn't been baselined at that specific time? Is there a way to revert back to that specific time? (I searched for a similar topic, but most of them were "versions created since...") VonC The "created_since"

Can the project manager force cancellation of checkouts of files/directories made in any view/stream/project? How? VonC A ClearCase administrator can force all files of a given view to be considered as "not checked out" (which is the equivalent of canceling their checkout status), with cleartool rmview : cleartool rmview -force -uuid (uuid_of_the_view) -vob \aVob You can get the uuid by grepping the user in the output of: cleartool descr -l vob:\aVob See technote " Removing checked-out references of a view from a VOB ". It will work for any view (snapshot or dynamic views, base ClearCase or

This should in theory be quite simple, i.e. merge the changes from a specific UCM activity from one stream to another. I had thought that I might just be able to use the Deliver command in the GUI and then select just the required activity to deliver, but it seems that the target stream is set to not allow deliveries from other streams. From searching the documentation it seems that I might instead be able to do this via the command line using the findmerge tool, but it's not at all clear from the rather sparse documentation how you do this. It seems like it might be a two stage process, i.e.

Why is the owner of the clearcase activity I created is 'NOBODY' but the created by is identified correctly. Is this the reason why I am not able to view the change set as a different user on a different machine. Those are representing object (here UCM activities) created by a user with an incorrect CLEARCASE_PRIMARY_GROUP environment variable (ie a group he/she isn't part of, or a group which isn't part of the primary or secondary groups of the vob/pvob of the UCM project). I usually fix that (as a ClearCase admin) with a: cd M:\auser_dynamic_ucm_view\avob\a_root_component cleartool find .

For build logging, I need to obtain the current stream/baseline with cleartool , but I am stuck in determining which command will give me this information. How can I make cleartool tell me which stream/baseline I am currently looking at? It is no problem if the output needs preprocessing or filtering. If you are in a view, you can: get the current stream cleartool lsstream -cview get all baselines for a component in that stream cleartool lsbl -comp myComp@\myPVob -stream myStream@\myPVob get all foundation baselines for that stream cleartool descr -fmt "%[found_bls]CXp" stream:myStream@\myPVob
