Re: configuration management tool
Configuration management tool:
Here is some information on CMT
The configuration management tool industry is well established in that there are a number of configuration management tools that have gained acceptance in the marketplace (e.g., pure atria's clearcase, continuus' continuus, true software's adc/pro, and intersolv's pvcs, starbase's starteam, mks's source integrity, and perforce software's perforce).
Most of these tools are available for unix and windows pc platforms. Table b1 shows examples of configuration management tools. The classification categories for configuration management tools need to match the evolution of a company's development, production, and maintenance needs. For example, a class 1 tool would typically suit a small company or a research and development group that has a small number of releases and possibly no variant releases.
A class 2 tool would typically suit a medium- or large-sized company that did not have a lot of formal processes defined and was not focused on standards certification. They may have many variant releases and so need strong support for parallel development and build management of products and, therefore, more reliability from the configuration management repository. A class 3 tool would typically suit a large corporation that had formal processes that need to be automated and that focused on process improvement and had developer and management and change needs similar to companies that use class 2 tools.
