Work areas

A work area is a region in your file system where Rational® Synergy writes a project hierarchy. The project file structure in the work area maps to the project database file structure.

A work area is either link-based (containing links to the database objects) or copy-based (containing copies of the database objects). In both types of work areas, Rational Synergy keeps the work area synchronized with the database. UNIX users work in link-based work areas by default, but can change to copy-based work areas. Windows users always work in copy-based work areas.

The following topics explain how work areas function:
