We would want the community names to be hidden for a RAM instance for a normal user who is not part of any of the communities. Only the members of the communities should be able to view the community. This is pretty similar to projects handled in ...

Enhance Change's Download Function

As described in the above PMR, Change uses /tmp to move files out of Synergy in preparation to download them to the user's browser (UNIX solution). The problem is that most UNIX operating systems use /tmp for their swap space and when it runs out ...

allow daisy-chain of two IHS servers with the WAS Plug-in

Currently there is no straightforward way to have IHS A in the DMZ route to IHS B (a normal IHS that routes to WAS) in the middle/interior network. It should be a straightforward use of the existing function in the WAS Plug-in, but some way to gen...

RSA-RTE: Correcting intermodel dependencies does not update the .emx file properly

clearfsimport should support synchronous request for mastership

clearfsimport should have the command line option -srfm (like mkelem has), with the following functionality:- if mastership is not locally available for a checkout, request it like in "cleartool co -srfm"- skip the element and raise an error if ma...

clearfsimport should not checkout a directory if not required

clearfsimport, especially when run in recursive mode, should not unconditionally check out the directories processed. In other words: only if an actual modification is required in the existing destination directory tree (repeated import), only the...
