Hi,

We are using Clearcase as a SCM in our project. So I installed Clearcase plugins. As of now, I am trying to do the trial through Windows client. There is an option to configure Clearcase related details. There is an configuration variable "ClearCase installation" and the value must be the location of "CLEARCASE_HOME\bin\cleartool" . This cleartool will be available only in Thick client, but not in Thin client. So which client has to be installed on my desktop where I am going to run Jenkins. Is it either thick or thin?

Once completed the trial stage, I will be doing the same in Linux machine (RHCL). So advise whether I need to follow the same procedure whichever I am going to work out in Windows platform? Like Thick client

Regards,

Mohamed Sathack

Hi,

sorry, the Clearcase plugin isn't compatible with the Clearcase Remote Client (CCRC) (I guess this is what you're calling the thin client). You should install the thick client.

Please note that cleartool is only required on Jenkins slaves, not on the master (that is of course, if you are using slaves, if you use master to execute jobs, then you need cleartool on it).

Cheers,

Vincent

Hi Vincent,

I was referring to CCRC only. Since we are having many number of environments, I don't want to install Jenkins on each and every environment(we have many QA environments). So I will configure Slave as well.

In such case, suggest the one which I have to use here. I am already started installation of Thick client in my Master(As of now I have master only).
