Locate a "ghost" change set
In my environment i have a change set associated to a work item but i don't know in which stream it has been delivered.
I know the feature to ask for all the streams/workspaces that contain a given change set is not present (I requested this functionality in work
item 100643) but in the meanwhile is there any workaround so i can know where this "ghost" chageset is?

Accepted answer
You can go to the work item links page and right-click > Locate Change Set... to check if it has been delivered to a stream. As of RTC 4.0, this will open up the Locate Change Sets editor, you can then drag & drop a selection of streams from elsewhere in the UI to see if the change set exists in there. Or you can drag&drop a project area node, which will add all streams owned by that project area and child team areas, or you can drag&drop the repository node from the Team Artifacts view which will offer to add all streams in the repository (which could be a lot, so perhaps you want to narrow down your selection).
Comments
Yes, i did it but i didn't find it. Also i looked for it in the personal workpaces of the owner of this chageset, but i didn't find it.
Then maybe the change set is not part of any stream or any workspace. A
change set can exist in the repository without being part of any stream
or workspace. That happens when a change set is discarded before it is
delivered anywhere.
If you need the change set, then you can accept it into your workspace
by right clicking on the change set entry in the work item. Then you
can deliver it to whichever streams are supposed to have it.
One other answer
Using the Eclipse client, use:
Search -> Jazz_Source_Control -> Change_Sets
This will let you specify various characteristics of the change-set that
you are looking for.
