问题
Is there a way to make cleartool checkouts unreserved by default? Perhaps a ~/.cleartool file or some environment variable? I understand the default can be set on the VOB (or all VOBs), but that option is beyond my control.
The ClearCase version I'm using is:
$ ct -version ClearCase version 7.0.1 (Wed May 30 17:04:58 EDT 2007)
7.0.1.0-RATL-RCC-IFIX01 (Wed Sep 19 16:08:10 EDT 2007) @(#) MVFS version
7.0.1.0-IFIX01 (Thu Sep 6 20:09:08 2007) built at $Date: 2009-12-08.14:59:16 (UTC) $ cleartool
7.0.1.0-IFIX01 (Thu Aug 9 20:20:45 EDT 2007) db_server
7.0.1.0-IFIX01 (Fri Sep 14 20:23:09 EDT 2007) VOB database schema version: 54
You may ask "why in world would the default ever be set to -reserved?" A fair question. However, the matter is beyond my control.
Update: I neglected to mention the environment is Linux.
回答1:
In the ClearCase Explorer, menu:
Tool / Options / button ClearCase Options / Tab "Operations"
Unchecked "reserved" in the "Check out" section.
However, this is for one user, not a global setting for all users...
On Windows, this is stored in the registry at:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Atria\ClearCase\CurrentVersion\Checkout
key:
Reserved 0
So if you can add that as a post-install setting, you could generalize that behavior to all users using your custom setup.

The OP unhillbilly comments rightly about the command cleartool unres (unreserve), which:
changes the checkout status of a checked-out version of an element to unreserved.
A temporary unreserve checkout of version event record is written to the VOB database.

I know this is an old post, but in case anyone in the future comes along with the same question, here's my answer.
If you want to set up a trigger so that everyone performs UNRESERVED checkouts then use the following command:
cleartool mktrtype -element -all -post checkout -exec '/opt/rational/clearcase/bin/cleartool unreserve -nc '$CLEARCASE_PN' TRIGGERNAME

The command I posed above should have another single quote so that it is '$CLEARCASE_PN' TRIGGERNAME
