IBM Rational Clearcase

This IBM Rational Clearcase UCM training course is designed to teach configuration managers to implement ClearCase effectively in their development environments (Windows and UNIX). This course introduces you to the discipline of software configuration management (SCM) and discusses the attributes of effective SCM. You will learn what information is critical to include in a configuration management plan. You practice creating and implementing a usage model based on a simulated software development project. The usage model includes details about organizing project artifacts, branching strategies, and project process and policies.

The IBM Rational ClearCase for UNIX training course teaches you to perform common day-to-day tasks using Rational ClearCase. It teaches the concepts and skills developers need to successfully manage source code change in their development environments.

By attending IBM Rational Clearcase UCM workshop, delegates will learn to:

  • Explain the Software Configuration Management environment and concepts
  • Create a Software Configuration Management plan
  • Create an appropriate ClearCase VOB structure
  • Create and maintain ClearCase components
  • Utilize composite components in large project configurations
  • Create, recommend and manage baselines
  • Create and maintain ClearCase projects and streams
  • Set component, project and stream policies
  • Utilize alternate stream strategies

By attending IBM Rational ClearCase for UNIX workshop, delegates will learn to:

  • Explain ClearCase concepts
  • Set up their development workspace
  • Access and work with files under source control
  • Merge work to and from the integration workspace
  • Create and work with snapshot views
  • Configure workspaces for parallel development
  • Perform advanced merge operations
  • Apply ClearCase metadata including labels, attributes, and hyperlinks
  • Generate ClearCase reports
  • Manage software builds

This IBM Rational Clearcase UCM class is designed for:

  • First time ClearCase users
  • Beginning Rational ClearCase users
