About DevOps Code ClearCase triggers, change sets, and request sets

The base ClearCase® integration with Rational® ClearQuest® consists of DevOps Code ClearCase triggers that fire when you check out an element, cancel a checkout, or check in an element.

Your DevOps Code ClearCase administrator installs the triggers into each target VOB. The integration associates one or more change requests with one or more versions stored in one of the target VOBs.

  • A single change request may be associated with more than one version. The set of versions that implement the requested change is called the change set for that request.
  • A single version may be associated with more than one change request. These change requests are called the request set for that version.
