Rational ClearCase requirements from any domain

Rational® ClearCase® imposes several requirements on any domain environment in which it operate:

All users who access a common set of VOBs and views must have domain accounts and have at least one group membership in common.
All client and server hosts must be members of a domain. If the hosts are not members of the same domain in which the user and group accounts are created, they must be members of a domain that trusts that domain.
Additional steps must be taken to enable users from multiple domains to access a common set of VOBs and views.

Rational ClearCase also requires a special domain account that provides a user identity for the albd_server process.

Note: If members of a Rational ClearCase community access VOBs and views on hosts running Linux® or the UNIX® system, user and group names for their domain accounts must be identical to those in the account database on Linux or the UNIX system. For more information, see Common user and group names.
