  • ClearCase Support: How to Setup ClearCase Registry


    For each ClearCase environment, one server must be defined as a ClearCase Registry Server. This server must always be online so that all the other ClearCase servers and clients can attain the registry information at any time. The registry information is the list of available VOBs and Views that each computer can access along with the exact VOB and View storage locations and server names on the network.

    Typically, all registry files are located by default in this directory on UNIX, but it may be configured for somewhere else:

    /usr/adm/atria/rgy

    The Registry Server will have this file with only one word in the file.

    $ cat /usr/adm/atria/rgy/rgy_svr.conf
    master

    All other ClearCase Servers and Clients will need to be configured with the Registry Server name.

    $ cat /usr/adm/atria/rgy/rgy_hosts.conf
    SERVER_NAME

    The SERVER_NAME must be the Registry Server’s name, such as "solaris.server.com".

    Additionally, all ClearCase Servers and Clients must know the registry's name in this config file.

    $ cat /usr/adm/atria/rgy/rgy_region.conf
    REGISTRY_NAME

    The REGISTRY_NAME must be the Registry’s name, such as "clearcase_registry" or "xyz".

    Finally, to reset the Registry password, use this command as root when logged into the Registry Server:

    # /usr/atria/etc/rgy_passwd
