Performing SoftBench CM Administrator Tasks

5.Run "fci -ARCS file,v" to create the initial SoftBench CM archive files.

6.Begin using SoftBench CM for file versioning.

This conversion process preserves the history and contents from the SCCS files.

The file /var/opt/softbench/cm/lockinfo holds all archive file lock information and is created and maintained automatically. The SoftBench CM server accesses this file for all lock or unlock information requests. It is recommend that you DO NOT modify this file. If you must modify it, follow these steps:

Failing to shutdown the server could cause data corruption and loss of information.

2.Modify the lockinfo file.

3.Run the fixinfo program on the lockinfo file:

cd /var/opt/softbench/cm /opt/softbench/sbin/fixinfo lockinfo outOK outBAD

4.If "bad = 0" prints, copy the outOK file onto lockinfo: cp outOK lockinfo

5.If there are bad records, edit the outBAD file to try to fix the problems.

6.Run fixinfo on the fixed file.

7.Concatenate all the "OK" files together and recheck before restarting the SoftBench CM server process.
