Importing a library configuration with Rational ClearCase

Check in all changes before importing a library configuration.
Only one person at a time should import a library into an existing library controlled by Rational® ClearCase®. When the import is finished, the same person should find all check-outs, and check-in all new files.

To import a library configuration:

  1. Use the Open Perspective menu to switch to the Resource perspective. Search for all checked-out files and check them in.
  2. Click File > Import > Library Configuration.
  3. Click Next. You will be prompted to checkout the library.xmi file. Click Apply.
  4. If you see a prompt to save and close all editors, click Next.
  5. Enter the location of the import directory in the Import Library Configuration window and click Next.
  6. When you are prompted to checkout the plug-ins affected by the import, click Apply.
  7. In the Import Library Configuration window, click Finish.
  8. Click OK to back up the library. You will be prompted to checkout all elements affected by the import.
  9. Click Apply.
  10. Switch to the Resource perspective (or Resource Navigator) and check-in all files that are checked out.
