Deliver/Rebase operation using snapshot view in ClearTeam Explorer fails if creation of a new view and a merge are involved during the operation

Troubleshooting


Problem

If you create a new snapshot view during a deliver or a rebase operation in IBM Rational ClearTeam Explorer, the operation fails with a checkout error if a merge is involved.

Symptom

Attempts to deliver/rebase to a new snapshot view created as part of the operation results in the following error:


Cause

The new snapshot view has no load rules specified and hence no source controlled resources loaded. ClearCase does not allow checkout of unloaded elements in snapshot views. As a result, a merge initiated during a deliver or rebase fails and hence the error.

Resolving The Problem

Once the problem is seen, modify the config spec of the newly created snapshot view to load appropriate components and resume the deliver/rebase operation.
