Replies: 7 - Pages: 1 - Last Post: Dec 17, 2010 12:12 PM Last Post By: jeff98air Threads: [ Previous | Next ] My client wants me to automatically rebase all the rest of streams after a final deliver to the production. I can only do this with "Allow rebase to proceed with checkouts in the view" in the project. I've never done this before, so can anyone tell me what's the consequence?
Thanks

Can I rebase with files checked out?
Checkouts are not allowed during rebase (so we could easily support the cancel operation for rebase). If checkouts were allowed, UCM would need to store a copy of all checked out files (as merging may be required if some files are affected by the rebase). This functionality could be provided in a future release, but for this release of UCM you cannot have any checkouts in your development stream during rebase.
in response to: Jirong_Hu's post Prior to CC v7 (or 7.1), you couldn't rebase if any checked-out file was found on the target stream (even if this file wasn't part of the change-set).Tamir Gefen, GoMidjets
in response to: Jirong_Hu's post CC 7.0.1 added the ability to rebase a stream with checkouts, but the rebase will fail if a merge is needed with a checked out element (whether or not there is a merge conflict). This is because the checked out version is already linked to an existing activity and can't also be linked to the rebase activity. A version can only be associated to exactly 1 activity at a time. I think your client's request for you to rebase all child streams is NOT VALID. Aside from potential view permission issues, what does your client expect you to do with merge conflicts that are likely to occur?
-Jeff Ng
in response to: Tgefen's post And the text Jirong quoted applies: don't hope for a rollback since ClearCase cannot identify the state of the checkedout files before the rebase (which should then be restored). Unless of course the functionality of taking a snapshot was implemented.
I would object that this is a bad idea, as it would mean introducing a new identification mechanism.
A flag to force checkin_or_uncheckout would sound better: we have rules and we break them (in other words, do whatever you want but you are warned).

in response to: jeff98air's post Hi Jeff That was my original understanding, and I just saw that happened in my test as shown below. For now, I added this rebase step in a post deliver trigger but let the deliver complete even if the rebase fails.
What I used before is let someone in the team rebase the child streams next morning after the deliver to the production is done last night. So they got a chance to review everything before continue. What do you think?
Thanks

in response to: Jirong_Hu's post Here's what I do: When new baselines are recommended (after successful build and automated unit tests), a notification email is sent to the team regarding the new baseline. Team members can then rebase to the new baseline when they are ready to, rather than it being done automatically. -Jeff Ng
in response to: jeff98air's post Or, just enable the policy that they cannot deliver until they have rebased the new recommended baseline...that works too. -Chris Moir

in response to: ChrisMoir's post Chris Moir wrote:Or, just enable the policy that they cannot deliver until they have rebased the new recommended baseline...that works too.Well, sort of... Enabling POLICY_DELIVER_REQUIRE_REBASE just prevents a user from delivering unless they have rebased to the recommended baseline. It does not notify users that a new baseline has been recommended.

in response to: UCMRookie's post Hi, Please compare the view storage (.view.stg) to another known healthy CCRC view to ensure no parts are missing, and also check the view log on the CM server. When I just had this same issue, the view log was saying:
2010-12-17T10:10:16-05:00 view_server(29598): Error: Unable to open /var/adm/rational/clearcase/ccweb/

2010-12-17T10:10:16-05:00 view_server(29598): Error: /var/adm/rational/clearcase/ccweb/
When we looked at the directory of this view, we saw:

drwxrwxr-x 4 usrname group 4096 Aug 2 09:48 ..

drwxrwxr-x 2 usrname group 8192 Dec 14 12:23 .s
Obviously, a lot missing...don't know why this happened though.
