Use the load rule editor in the ClearCase View Configuration
tool to create or modify load rules for a ClearCase Web view.
About this task
The ClearCase Edit
Configuration dialog box includes a load rule editor with which you
can explore the contents of VOBs accessible to the CCRC UCM server
and add load rules that specify all or part of a VOB's contents. You
can also remove load rules.
Procedure
To use the load rule editor:
- In the ClearTeam Navigator, select a ClearCase Web view.
- From the ClearTeam Navigator context menu, select Show
ClearCase View Configuration to open the ClearCase
View Configuration view.
- Optional: To view or edit load rules as text,
click the
icon on the ClearCase
View Configuration toolbar and select Edit Configuration or
click the
icon on the ClearCase View Configuration toolbar
to open the Edit Configuration dialog box.
- In the Edit Configuration dialog box,
click the Load Rules tab, then add load rules
by selecting them in the Select resources and add or remove
rules tree and clicking Add. You
can remove load rules by selecting them in the Load Rules list
box and clicking Remove.
- To add a rule that loads an entire VOB, select the VOB folder
from the list and click Apply.
- To add a rule that loads a subdirectory of a VOB, click the
plus sign (+) to the left of any folder to list its contents, then
select the folders or files you want to load and click Apply.
- When you have finished adding load rules, click OK to
close the Edit Configuration dialog box.
Results
When you load or update a ClearCase Web
view, the IBM Rational® ClearTeam Explorer™ contacts the CCRC WAN
server and requests a version of each element in each load rule's
scope. The versions requested are determined by the view's config
spec. The time required to load a Web view depends on the number and
size of resources that must be loaded, and on the speed of your connection
to the CCRC WAN server.
