Clearcase plugin

[Mohamed Sathack]

Hi,

I am working on Build Deployment automation. Build and Deployment automation is complete by having local repository.

Now I am going to integrate this Job with Clearcase which is a SCM in our project. 

Here is the scenario,

Our clearcase server is running in Windows machine. But I am implementing this CI in Linux(Redhat) machine. So I need to access my Windows VOBs from my linux client. We have a limitation here. We can create only snapshot view as per the IBM technote. This is due to accessing the Windows VOB from Linux client.

I could see "Base ClearCase" supports Snapshot view. Hence I installed this plugin.

Guide me How to setup the details since I am newbie to Clearcase too. There are fields like Load Rules, Config Specs which I require hands on

Thanks in Advance

Regards,

Mohamed Sathack

Hi Mohamed,

Before even considering working with clearcase and Jenkins, I'd recommend you to Google around or get a basic Clearcase training from one of your administrators. This should get you started.

Hi Vincent,

I started using UCM Clearcase plugin which comes along with base Clearcase plugin (Trial). I provided a unique view tag, view path and Stream name with PVOB. When executing the job, it is getting the correct baseline version for the streamline. And then it is throwing an error message like this.

cleartool: Error: No matching entries found for view tag "testing_Clearcase_Repo_Job".
FATAL: UCM ClearCase failed. exit code=1

I believe Jenkins will create view tag and then snapshot view in it job's workspace. But here it is throwing an error.

Earlier I manually created a view tag and loaded a view. Then after I used that view tag inside Jenkins job. By that time , it identifies that view tag was present and then deleting it. After that it fails again

Our Clearcase implementation is we are running Jenkins in Linux machine. But our Clearcase server is running in Windows machine. So we are trying to access the Windows VOB from Jenkins in Linux. We have done all the setup between Linux and Windows server and manually tested it. We were able to create the snapshot view by that time and able to load the entire contents from Clearcase server.

Hi,

without full logs, I cannot tell anything, some of the command launched can fail on purpose (checking if a view tag exists for instance)
