Rational Team Concert™ source
control components
are automatically mapped to VOBs and UCM components on export.
When you export a file or folder from
Rational Team Concert source
control,
it is added to a VOB or UCM component whose name matches the name
of the
Rational Team Concert source
control component
where it originated.
Important: The VOB to which the
exported files and folders are to be added cannot be created by the
synchronization process. It must exist before synchronization begins.
Exporting to UCM
When files in a
Rational Team Concert source
control component
are selected to be in a synchronized stream defined by a UCM stream,
the following rules govern how
Rational Team Concert source
control components
are mapped to UCM components:
- If there is a UCM component that has the same name as the Rational Team Concert source
control component,
it becomes the target of the export
- If no such UCM component exists, the synchronization process attempts
to create one in a PVOB whose tag matches the value of the PVOB_TAG property
in the ClearCase Provider Properties of the
synchronized stream. The root directory of the component is created
in a VOB whose tag matches the value of the COMPONENT_VOB_TAG property
in the ClearCase Provider Properties of the
synchronized stream.
- If the PVOB_TAG or COMPONENT_VOB_TAG properties
are not set, or if no such PVOB or VOB exists, the export fails.
Exporting to base Rational ClearCase
When
files in a
Rational Team Concert source
control component
are selected to be in a synchronized stream defined by a
Rational® ClearCase® branch
type and label type, the following rules govern how exported components
are mapped to VOB folders:
- If a VOB that has the same name as the Rational Team Concert source
control component
where the export originated is mounted, it becomes the target of the
export.
- If no such VOB is mounted, the export fails. Either of the following
actions can correct the problem:
- Rename the Rational Team Concert source
control component
to match the tag of a mounted VOB
- Create a new VOB that has the appropriate name (tag) and mount
it
Restriction: If you previously exported files
and folders to a UCM component that has the same name as the Jazz
source control component, that Jazz source control component is already
associated with that UCM component, and you cannot export to a VOB
with the same name.
