Need help while Importing code from ClearCase to RTC


Naveen Arora (3178) | asked Jan 25 '11, 10:53 a.m.
Hello

I am trying to import the code from Clearcase to RTC. While import I have selected the component vob to be imported. I can see the synchronized stream and component created in RTC. When I right click the component and select 'Repository files' in RTC, it is only showing imported folder structure of component vob, not the file within it.

Then I tried importing again and this time selected few files under a particular folder in cvob and then tried to import it and those files got imported. Does it mean I have to select each and every file and folder under cvob when doing the import or can I just select the component vob while doing the import ?

Thanks !!

If the import completes successfully, all of the files in the folders
should have been implemented as well. If they weren't, you'll want to
work with support to find out what went wrong.

Selecting a folder to be imported should result in all the files and
folders (recursively) under that folder to be imported. So if it
doesn't, that is a bug/problem.

Hi Geoff,

So is there any special permission that one needs to have for performing this migration. User is the integration stream owner and is in the primary group of the VOB, does that suffice ?

If the accounts you are using to do the synchronization don't have the
right permissions, you should get an error (unless, of course, there is
a bug in the error reporting).

The ClearCase account has to be able to do normal ClearCase developer
things (create new elements, etc.) as well as some more admin things
like locking the synchronized branch, and creating attributes.

The RTC account has to be able to do normal RTC developer things (like
creating new files/folders, and delivering changes to the synchronized
stream).

Cheers,
Geoff
