Discarding changes to shared resources

When you discard a change set, the changes that you made to the resources are undone, and the locks on the resources are released so that other users can change the resource. You can discard only an entire change set; you cannot discard changes to individual resources in a change set.

Before you begin

  • You should be familiar with project areas, configuration spaces, snapshots, workspaces, and change sets, which are described in Management of shared resources.
  • You must be logged in to a project, and the current configuration context must be set to the change set to discard.
  • The change set to discard must not be in a completed or a shared state.
  • This content applies to version 4.0.3 or later.
    • To do actions on change sets, in the Configuration Management application, you must have permission to update which resources are part of a configuration.
    • To discard other team members' change sets, in the Configuration Management application, you must have this corresponding change set permission. See the related task topic about administering change sets.
