Attaching the list of patches installed on my machine.

ld: Unsatisfied symbol "block_sigstop" in file /usr/conf/lib/libusrdrv.a[mvfs.o]
ld: Unsatisfied symbol "unblock_sigstop" in file /usr/conf/lib/libusrdrv.a[mvfs.o]

These two symbols are defined in:
$ nm -pxAN /usr/conf/lib/libpm.a | grep block_sigstop
T /usr/conf/lib/libpm.a[subr_threads.o]:block_sigstop
T /usr/conf/lib/libpm.a[subr_threads.o]:unblock_sigstop

Do you get these two "T"s?

[gurpreet_1]

There is no entry for block_sigstop and unblock_sigstop after running this command.

nm -pxAN /usr/conf/lib/libpm.a


# nm -pxAN /usr/conf/lib/libpm.a | grep block_sigstop
#

# nm -pxAN /usr/conf/lib/libpm.a | grep unblock_sigstop
#

Attaching the output for reference.

You may need PHKL_35879.
Did you get a list of patches you must have from the learcase installation instructions?

[Peter Nikitka]

Hi,

check, if your clearcase product version plus the version of the mvfs patch really fits to your OS version.
Did you import the CCase-patch into the release area?

mfG Peter

PS: Of course, don't miss to check the recommended patch level of Rational for your OS version, like the other posters told you!

I have installed GOLDBASE11i bundle which solved the problem for swinstall.

But now clearcase is not starting:

Since you are having so many problems with clearcase, why not contact IBM Rational for support?

>Attaching the swagent.log for reference.

This seems to indicate you installed it.
You should also look into the clearcase log files: /var/adm/rational/clearcase/log/*_log
See what is in mvfs_log.

You can also look at them with: ct getlog
(See: ct man getlog)

>mvfslog: Error: The MVFS file system is not installed or not loaded,

I assume you have rebooted your kernel since swagent.log shows it is configured.

/var/adm/rational/clearcase/log/mvfs_log
is empty.

/var/adm/syslog/syslog.log
This log is attached for reference.
It shows no errors related to mvfs.

I am trying to start clearcase from / not from /view.

/view is not busy.

# cd /stand
# find . -name mvfs -print

mvfs is not present in /stand.
