What is the quickest way(setup) to get started with the lscm (only command line)?

I am mainly interested in learning the lscm utility. I have setup the JTS on my local machine and it is up and running.

However, I am not sure what project area/workspace/repository setup is required for it to work. All I want to do is just write some code and push it to the server (via lscm). I tried following https://jazz.net/library/article/620 , but I get an error

"Problem running 'create workspace':

Unmatched workspace "Stream1"

for the command

lscm create workspace -r local -s Stream1 Workspace1

I tried going through the documentation, but it is pretty huge and complex to understand (as I am currently not interested in knowing project structures, teams, streams, workspaces, etc in depth).

What are the setup steps required to successfully use the CCM (command line - lscm)?

Basically, I just want to use the source control. (like git)

Also, is the above tutorial link valid ? I am using v6 JTS on linux(ubuntu)

Hands-on examples are missing, so it's getting diffifuclt to just read and understand the theory for a complete beginner like me. (Workspace, Project Area, Repository, Streams, Components, Teams, Targetflows etc -- this is pretty overwhelming - just to read the theory)

I created a workspace with the following command ( after logging into <url>/ccm )

lscm create workspace -r local Sample

and the command was successful. I could validate it with the following command:

> lscm list workspaces -r local

> (1003) "Sample" (1002) "abcxyz"

Now, I believe I need to create a "Stream", which is where I am stuck....

> lscm create stream -r local -s Sample

complains of missing arguments name, owner. I am not sure what are those.

I want to know just the enough configuration (streams, etc) that i need to do/create, to push the code and use it as a source control tool like git.

Please help.

You need to understand Jazz SCM, otherwise it is likely impossible. Look into the UI and understand the concepts there.

Also read: https://jazz.net/library/article/87559 and https://jazz.net/library/article/126

Read the reference or the LSCM help to get the syntax - version matters - the name is likely the stream name and the owner is usually a project area.
