Working in disconnected mode
To work in disconnected mode, take the following steps:
- Update your snapshot view.
- Disconnect from ClearCase by clicking ClearCase > Connect to
ClearCase to toggle it off.
- Disconnect from the network.
- Start the Rational Developer product but do not connect to ClearCase. You may need to clear
the Automatically Connect to ClearCase at Startup
preference check box.
- Use the Hijack option to modify files. Using this option makes
read-only files in a snapshot view writeable.
Avoid operations that rename or move files as these are difficult to reconcile
after reconnecting.
- Reconnect to the network, connect to ClearCase (note that it may take several minutes before you can perform
ClearCase operations), update the view by clicking ClearCase > Update View,
resolve any hijacked files, and use the Find Resources to Add to Source Control
option.
