    ClearCase Support: Manipulating Config Specs


    Ever wonder how to see, save, and edit your Config Spec in ClearCase?

    To see or display the Config Spec for the current View, use this command:

    cleartool catcs

    To edit the Config Spec for the current View, use this command:

    cleartool edcs

    To save or backup the Config Spec for the current View to a file, use this command:

    cleartool catcs > filename.txt

    To set the Config Spec for the current View from a file (this will delete your current config spec settings, so please make a backup first), use this command:

    cleartool setcs filename.txt

    To set the Config Spec for the current View to the default setting (this will delete your current config spec settings, so please make a backup first), use this command:

    cleartool setcs -default

    Please let me know if there is any interest in explaining how the rules in the config spec work, and I will write a detailed guide all about it.

    If you have any other ClearCase questions, please do not hestitate to contact me for free advice.
