Need help with HP Extream - Version Management - how to re-import files

Is there any experience out there regarding "Version Management" of HP Extream entities/artifacts? (I think it used to be called Dialogue)

Basically we are currently exporting some ".pub" files from Extream (which we can load into our VM tool) for deployment to Test/Live. But it "appears" that there is no method to reload/re-import these files back into Extream.

So although we can reproduce/deliver back-dated/old .pub files into Test/Live environments we seemingly can't rewind Extream to the same level/version to modify (for bug fix etc).......

Cheers

How do I create multiple build_mgr on the same database in CM Synergy?

I'm looking for a way to have separated but INDEPENDANT build_mgr on a same database to limit interaction between us. Each build_mgr will have a group of project to manage.

I want to avoid that the build manager of a project interact on a project which is not in its group....

any idea ?

cleartool find output "changes" with time

I have a weird situation with a Cleartool find command in that it appears to 'change its mind' with time... I am running the following command:

cleartool find /vobs/gmag_public -all -type d -verion "brtype(main) && ! version(.../main/0)" -print

My changes to folders are performed on my primary Solaris server and the find command is run on a replica Linux server, which is "synced up" every 20 minutes.

When I run:

diff history 092757 history 110704

I get the following output (NOTE folder-2-name-2 becomes folder-2-name-1):

Need help with preop trigger for checkin with ClearCase

I am working on a pre-op trigger for the checkin process, where I am adding a line which contains the following information in the file to be checked in:

1. Version number
2. Username
3. Date
4. Comment entered by user during checkin

The above values are being read from clearcase environment variables.

I am implementing this using Perl. The problem I am facing is in case of a failed checkin( for example, an unreserved checkout user trying to checkin the file, when another user has checked out the file in reserved mode).

Since this is a preop trigger, even if the checkin fails, the script will run and the line is getting added in the file.

In this article, Charles Suscheck defines each of these requirements types and uses a running example to illustrate how they differ in a real-world setting.

What's new in the last couple of years?

Hi

I was quite active in CMCrossroads a couple of years ago. Then I spent some time in load testing, RQM and ClearCase for zOS and now RTC.

Back to SCM in general, did I miss anything? Is there anything I need to catch up? What's the new development in SCM world?

Thanks
Jirong
