25.10 Registering Site-Wide Properties

The ClearCase registry maintains a set of properties for ClearCase. ClearCase uses the value for a site-wide property when you perform an operation that uses that property and you don't specify the property's value. For example, when you create a view and do not specify one of the shareable DOs options, ClearCase uses the site-wide value.

You can use the ClearCase Administration Console to view or edit site-wide properties on the ClearCase registry server for a region:

1. Start the ClearCase Administration Console.

2. Navigate to the ClearCase Registry node.

3. Click Action > Properties.

You can also use the cleartool lssite command to display the set of site-wide properties and their values. Use the cleartool setsite command to set new values for site-wide properties. For information about the available properties and possible values for them, see the reference page for the setsite command.
