Checking check archive contents

About this task

Use the new ccm archive_check command to check the contents of the archive within a Rational Synergy database. It confirms that all the source files archived using a previous release, such as Rational Synergy 6.5, can be retrieved successfully using the new archive utility in Rational Synergy 7.1.

You can check all archived files, only files of a particular type, or specific files.

To run this command, you must first install Rational Synergy 7.1. Users must be in the ccm_admin role to use this command.

To test archive files on a database that has already been upgraded to 7.1, run the command using the syntax described in the following procedure.

To check the archive contents using the ccm archive_check command:

Procedure

  1. Start a Classic CLI session on the older database.
  2. Type the following commands:

    ccm set role ccm_admin

    ccm archive_check ...

Results

The following example describes the command syntax.

ccm archive_check [/t|/type type]|[file_spec...]
[/gnu gnu_dir] [/bsd bsd_dir]

/bsd bsd_dir

Specifies the Synergy installation directory where the BSD executable files (bsdci, bsdco, bsdrcs, bsdlog, ccm_zip, and ccm_unzip) exist. The default is $CCM_HOME/bin/util/. You typically do not need to specify this argument if you are running this command in your Synergy 7.0 installation.

file_spec

Indicates a specific file or set of files whose archive you want to check.

/gnu gnu_dir

Specifies the Synergy installation directory where the GNU executable files (ccm_gci, ccm_gco, ccm_glog, ccm_grcs, and ccm_gzip) exist. The default value is CCM_HOME\bin\util. However, if you have not copied the utilities from a previous release using the ccm_copy_tools command, specify the path to the bin\util directory in your Synergy 6.4 or 6.5 server installation directory.

/type|/t

Indicates to check files of the specified type only. If you have a large database, use this command to check subsets of data in separate commands.
