Where is the Documentation on SRA using PVCS VM plugin


I'm currently configuring SRA to perform a GET from Version Manager. SRA provide a plugin to perform this function, but there's no documentation for it. Also the plugin calls for the pcli.exe. But I'm geting "You cannot access this project because your login account" Error.

    The SRA "Serena Release Automation Guide" or sra_guide.pdf for 4.5 has on page 206 a table of what to enter to use the PCLI for Version Manager (VM) and right below that table there is information on plugins. Let us know if this helps or if you need additional information.

    As to the "You cannot access this project because your login account"... either you're not providing the credentials, you're not in the access control database for that entity or there is a licensing issue.

    Hey Jeanie, can you give me a call. I've been working with Brad and he also needs help.

    The issue was the password had a special character in it. ($)

    Bruce,

    I was able to respond with the information above because of my many years of experience with Version Manager and also working for Serena and Merant prior to that. I had a pretty good guess on where to look for the information.

    I talked to Brad and he's working with Richard already on this so I'm going to gracefully bow out as you're in the best hands there.

    To wrap this thread up: the Project Path should contain a PCLI entity path, which has the format "/project/subproject/etc." In light of this example the value was "/pms".
