Procedure

1. Open a terminal window on the UNIX system where you installed Functional Tester.

2. In the terminal widow, type the following to open the directory where you installed ClearCase.

   >cd /  ClearCaseinstalldirectory/lib/mgrs/_ rftdef

   where ClearCaseinstalldirectory is the directory where you installed ClearCase.

3. Type the following commands to link to the Functional Test type manager:

   > ln -s FunctionalTestinstalldirectory/FunctionalTester/bin/rtmapmerge merge

   >ln -s FunctionalTestinstalldirectory/FunctionalTester/bin/rtmapmerge xmerge

   where FunctionalTestinstalldirectory is the directory where you installed Functional Tester.

   The default installation directory is /opt/IBM/SDP70.
