CC Import issues
We are experiencing an issue importing where there are directories that contain files with names that are the same except for the case. For example, Foo.c and foo.c in the same directory. The synchronizer is attempting to fine a version to import, but on the wrong element and it throws an exception. We are assuming this is due to the fact that we are running the import on a Windows machine. Our solution is to stand up a Linux machine for importing. I have two questions.
1. Is this expected behavior or are we doing something wrong?
2. Our import of a label in a VOB containing 4200 elements has taken 47+ hours and still going. Is this unusual and is there anything we can do to speed up the process?
Our import machines have 4 processors, 8 GB of memory and plenty of free disk space.
One answer
1. I would think that it would be enough to go to the Administration tab of the ClearCase Control Panel on your ClearCase Sync Host machine, and uncheck the Case Insensitive MVFS check box (you'll then have to reboot the ClearCase Sync Host machine, for that change to take effect). If that doesn't work, please let us know, and we can have the CC Sync dev team investigate. Having a Linux machine be the Sync Host would also work, because that box is unchecked by default on a Unix machine.
2. That is very unusual. An import of 4200 elements is expected to take an hour or so. Please submit a trouble ticket with Rational Support so they can help you investigate what's happening in your environment.
