Our goal is to acquire information about which merges are trivial, manual, or automatic. Currently, we have clearmrgman, and while it has a save feature, we'd like to do this without involving a GUI or human interaction. 

 

Is there any way to acquire this information about merges from the command line? The solution does not necessarily have to use ClearCase. 

 

Thanks in advance.

We have a few shared projects used as buckets for adhoc pieces of code, and it looks like one of them was checked in 3 weeks ago; they normally sit at 'shared' status, but one has now changed to 'test' status and build managers are now unable to add new objects (permission denied to workarea folder).

Is there an easy way for me to move this project back from 'test' to 'prep' that anyone knows?

Thanks in advance

What is the best practice of taking SVN backups, i.e. either through dumps using a script or copying the whole database using Windows System tools or any other good practice?

Hi
Wondering if anyone has come accross this issue? (It's not a show stopper but has got me scratching my head)

I am trying to "migrate" some Items from an existing Dimensions Product into a new Product.
NB I am in essence cloning "part" the old Product.
I do actually want to create new CI/items rather than variants of the existing CI/Items.
The new CI/Items will all be V1 with no history etc in the new Product.

Hi. I have been looking around for new references to the software CA Harvest SCM and until now have not been able to identify this solution in recent independant studies (for example, Gartner Magic Quadrant, Forrester Wave, or others).  Does anyone know why  Harvest is not included in the recent versions of these reports?

 

 

Regards,

I'm looking for any suggestions anybody might have of real parameters that are mesurable and could be used to improve the quality and robustness of Configuration Management Business Cases to encourage the adoption of CM as early as possible in new programmes and projects

Hello,

 

I am new to CA SCM. We are currently running version 12.1.03. I am wondering if, as a regular user, I can run a command/set of commands so I can get an output of the following form:

Project/State/Package(s)/File(s)/Version(s)

Please provide a set of instructions on how I can get this info running at command line CA SCM commands.

Thank you,

BM

Hello,

I like to know the output of a command from Synergy 7.1. Since, we have already moved to the newer version Synergy 7.2, I dont have environment to check this. This output of this command is needed for modification in one of our internal script.

If you still uses Synergy 7.1, may you able to provide me the output of the following command:
ccm properties -f %status% non-existing-object-four-partname
