My long-term business partner, Trent, told me the other week he was going to write a rebuttal to my previous rant, “What’s wrong with ClearQuest“, called “What’s getting slightly better about ClearQuest”. I think he’s struggling to fill a few paragraphs though, because it hasn’t been forthcoming. He recently wrote a reply on the forum [...] This blog describes the process for moving or copying ClearQuest schema and user databases between two separate database instances using the database vendor’s native facilities. This approach has a few of advantages over the standard Move /Copy Database facilities provided by ClearQuest (either those used via the Maintenance Tool or Designer, or via command [...] I’ve done some pretty masochistic ClearQuest database migrations in my time. By masochistic I mean that instead of using the Rational recommended approach for a database migration (I don’t even know what that is. Fiddling around with the import/export tool? No thanks!), I’ll write routines in Transact/SQL or PL/SQL (SQL Server and Oracle’s procedural [...] I seem to be using decorators in my Python code more and more each day. Given that I’m meant to be giving a short presentation on decorators to the New York Python User Group tomorrow evening, I figured I’d whip up a quick blog post to get some ideas flowing. (Update: the presentation is [...] I’m a big fan of spreading my desktop over as many monitors I can find. When I’m working from home, this usually entails four monitors, each with 1920×1200 resolutions (made possible due to the excellent software MaxiVista, which I highly recommend). When I’m travelling or working on a client’s site, I’ll typically have to [...] During the normal course of ClearQuest development, I often want to create a new development database from a production backup and have it available from the same schema (i.e. I don’t want to create a separate schema database from a production snapshot as well). Because you can’t have two user databases registered to a [...] I’ve done some pretty masochistic ClearQuest database migrations in my time. By masochistic I mean that instead of using the Rational recommended approach for a database migration (I don’t even know what that is. Fiddling around with the import/export tool? No thanks!), I’ll write routines in Transact/SQL or PL/SQL (SQL Server and Oracle’s procedural language [...] I was going through old SQL snippets I’ve collected the other day and came across this little chestnut that counts the lines of hook code in a ClearQuest database. Horrendously useless in the grand scheme of things, unless you enjoy distracting yourself from real work with useless info. (Apparently I do.) [...] I’m not aware of the history behind it, but Classics is quite a handy little collection of resources when it comes to testing our products against a standard run-of-the-mill ClearQuest schema. It contains all sorts of things like RequisitePro databases and testing stuff, but what I rely on it most for is the ClearQuest CLSIC [...] |
