Submitting assets by using Rational ClearCase Unified Change Management (UCM)

Create a new asset and submit it to ClearCase®.

About this task

When submitting or updating an asset, make sure the following conditions have been satisfied:

You begin with a pristine view that contains the artifacts and files that you want to have in your asset. Then you create the asset in the Asset Editor and add content that is under source control.

Procedure

  1. Create a project or navigate to an existing ClearCase project in your workspace and share it with ClearCase. Alternatively, a project existing in ClearCase can also be imported into your workspace. You can distinguish ClearCase projects by the blue box decorations on the files and folders.
  2. Select the Eclipse project and create an asset out of the project.
  3. In the Contents tab of the Asset Editor, select the ClearCase resources that you want associated to the asset.
  4. Save the asset.
  5. In the Add Elements to Source Control window, select the .Asset file and click OK.
  6. In the Add Elements to Source Control window, select the .Settings folder and click OK.
  7. In the Asset editor, click Submit to submit the asset to the repository.
  8. When prompted, confirm the submission by clicking OK.
  9. In the Check in Artifact Resources window, click OK. The asset has been shared with ClearCase and UCM references have been added to the Manifest that exists on the server.
  10. In the Submit Asset window, click OK to confirm the submission.
