scm compare snapshot <snapshot1> snapshot <snapshot2>

If there were new components in snapshot2 then the above command should show these components as incoming. You can also use the filter to show either incoming or outgoing. For ex: "-f i"

I am using the command as:
./scm compare -I c -f b ss <base ss> ss <current ss> -r rtcuser
But this gives the newly component as
"<comp_name>" (removed)
Why is it showing as (removed) for the new added component?
Is it a error in RTC 4.0.1?

What it means is that the component does not exist in the "base ss" as compared to the "current ss". If you reverse the order that is give "current ss" as the first argument then it will show as added. It shows the information with respect to the first argument.

Had already tried this option to reverse the snapshots , but does give the same output.

If you have reversed the snapshot arguments and you still see the same output then it is a defect. Please raise a defect which displays the list of components in both the snapshots and the resulting output of the compare command.
