This patch contains the following software changes:


PI19733:

   Problem: When using a makefile to overwrite a file using the move command in a ClearCase Dynamic View you may notice that the source file was not removed.

   Fix: ClearCase Multi Version File System was changed to enable winked-in files to be overwritten on move operations.


PI24698:

   Problem: When using the Rational ClearCase File Service (CCFS) as the interoperability solution to access Unix-hosted VOBS from Windows you may encounter a "Permission denied" error.

   Fix: Windows now skips permission denied ports.


PI57999:

   Problem: ClearCase Windows may crash when accessing dynamic views created with -host, -gpath and -hpath options on non-NAS environment

   Fix: ClearCase was changed to avoid -host, -gpath and -hpath to be used on a non-NAS environment.


PI59858:

   Problem: For base ClearCase VOBs using the CMI integration, findmerge -avobs fails when two or more VOBs have elements that require merging.

   Fix: The findmerge -avobs command should work properly for multiple VOBs using the CMI integration.


PI63237:

   Problem: ClearCase reop triggers do not block the request for mastership in synchronous request for mastership checkouts and mkelems.

   Fix: Preop triggers on reqmaster will now fire during synchronous request for mastership checkouts and mkelems, and will allow the User to block requests for mastership during those operations.


PI66371:

   Problem: Customers may experience a crash on Microsoft Windows when accessing ClearCase views created with -host, -gpath and -hpath options on non-NAS environment.

   Fix: ClearCase was changed to avoid -host, -gpath and -hpath to be used to specify local, non-NAS view storage.


PI77492:

   Problem: A user is unable to connect to a ClearCase Remote Client WAN server, if the login URL contains a trailing  white space.

   Fix: Trailing white space is now removed from URLs in all cases.


PI77782:

   Problem: The ClearCase UCM/ClearQuest integration was creating multiple ClearQuest web sessions when using ClearTeam Explorer with a web-based view.

   Fix: The UCM/ClearQuest integration now uses fewer ClearQuest web sessions when using ClearTeam Explorer with a web-based view.


PI78348:

   Problem: In ClearTeam Explorer, the graphical version tree would not display the view-selected version correctly if the element name contained @@ (version-extended characters) in the middle of the name.

   Fix: ClearTeam Explorer is fixed to display the view-selected version correctly when an element name contains @@ (version-extended characters) in the middle of the name.
Note that using the version-extended characters at the end of an element name is not supported in ClearCase.


PI81268:

   Problem: When the ClearCase Explorer has been used to access a UCM view, but then gets left idle for a long period of time, then on resumption it hangs for a short period and then gives:
"Trouble communicating with VOB database \<PVOB-tag>".

   Fix: Users will not encounter such error messages when ClearCase Explorer client is left idle for a long period of time.


PI82633:

   Problem: The scroll bar in missing in ClearCase ClearTeam Explorer (CTE) version tree for some versions of elements that have a large number of labels.

   Fix: The missing scrollbar issue has been fixed.


PI86344:

   Problem: ClearCase users with certain special characters in their password such as: an UMLAUT cannot successfully create an automatic view owing to rview agent failing to log into the server.		

   Fix: The rview agent now is capable of properly logging into cmserver using the user's credentials even if they have the afore mentioned special characters.


PI88572:

   Problem: Customer may be seeing the root  ClearCase MVFS(Multi Version File System ) path with a  double backslash("\\"") at the end of the path when using net use command.

   Fix: ClearCase Network Provider was changed to avoid this behavior.
