This patch contains the following software changes:


PI51355:

   Problem: When searching for files in a ClearCase dynamic view, using the Windows Explorer Search feature, you may not see any results.

   Fix: Changes were made on ClearCase Network Provider to return correct path information.


PI72025:

   Problem: Creating or deleting hyperlinks that span VOBs (common in a UCM setup) in IBM Rational ClearCase can lead to a situation where two processes are waiting on each other for a lock on one of the VOB databases. This will lead to the Dead Man Lock Timeout to be triggered, making one of the two operations to fail.

   Fix: A ClearCase db transaction will be suspended and restarted for cross vob hlinks.


PI75108:

   Problem: Users of ClearCase dynamic views may see messages reporting stale transaction ids in the mvfs_log log file.  Unexpected application I/O errors or hangs may coincide with these messages.

   Fix: The logic for how the MVFS handles certain transient errors in communicating with a view_server process has been corrected.


PI77954:

   Problem: Removing a ClearCase UCM stream while a remote site has a view attached (to the stream) causes the db dumper to fail. 

   Fix: The db dumper has been fixed.


PI78918:

   Problem: A ClearCase "RMSTREAM" of "Feature Level 5" stream after raising VOB to "Feature Level 7" FAILS WITH "ERROR FROM VOB DATABASE" FOR UCM PROJECT VOB.

   Fix: Feature Level 7 VOBs now can handle "rmstream" command from Feature Level 5.


PI80487:

   Problem: A ClearCase Syncreplica -import of the modstream_cspec oplog generated by creating a child stream fails with a segmentation fault in a sibling that has removed the parent stream.

   Fix: The replay code has been modified to properly store the modstream_cspec oplog while skipping its replay if the parent stream is not found in the importing replica.


PI80609:

   Problem: ClearCase customers may experience a system crash when accessing MVFS files.

   Fix: This issue has been resolved.


PI82010:

   Problem: The outdated Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Visual C++ runtimes are distributed with ClearCase and ClearQuest as those products have components that depend on them.

   Fix: All dependencies on the Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Visual C++ runtimes have been removed from ClearCase and ClearQuest, and those runtimes are no longer installed


PI82359:

   Problem: ClearCase processes crash when executed by a Windows account that is a member of a group represented by long Windows SID, such as SIDs for non-domain accounts linked to a Microsoft account  

   Fix: ClearCase processes no longer fail with such accounts, but ClearCase will ignore any group (behave as if the user is not a member of the group)  represented by a long Windows SID.
