Setting up a UCM project

Unified Change Management (UCM) is an out-of-the-box project management process layered on top of base ClearCase. UCM simplifies the management of projects whose sources are put under source control.

As a project manager of a UCM-managed project, you will be setting up the project environment. This module explains the project manager's tasks to set up a UCM project.
