Region Inhibited List

This portion of the license file contains the list of Inhibited Users/Groups/Elements/VOBs/Replicas/Views/Times for the ClearTrigger region such that data modifying actions cannot be performed on matching conditions. Users will get a uniform error dialog when trying data modifying actions in the region under these conditions.

Any listed users or user groups are designated such that ClearTrigger will immediately inhibit these users from performing data modification in the ClearTrigger Region.

Any listed VOBs, Replicas or elements are designated such that ClearTrigger will immediately inhibit anyone from performing data modification on matching VOBs, Replicase or elements in the ClearTrigger Region.

Any listed Views are designated such that ClearTrigger will immediately inhibit anyone from performing data modification from within matching views in the ClearTrigger Region.

Any listed Times are designated such that ClearTrigger will immediately inhibit anyone from performing data modification during a matching time in the ClearTrigger Region. When there is one or more VOBs are in the list then no VOB data modifying action can be taken by anyone on those VOBs (an exception being - builds are allowed).

This allows a policy maker to quickly stop a user or group from changing data within a group of VOBs or all VOBs within the ClearTrigger region without creating new triggers.

The format for this section is a list of zero or more user-ids, group names, VOB tags, replicas, element names, views or times enclosed by semicolons (;). User names are surrounded with Parenthesis (i.e. (cclarke) ), group names are surrounded with brackets (i.e. <groupname>), VOB tags and VOB:replicas are surrounded with square brackets (i.e. [/vobs/a_vob], [\a_vob] or [\some_vob:some_replica]), element names are surrounded with curly braces (i.e. {/vobs/a_vob/foo.c} or {\a_vob\foo.c}, view names are surrounded with percent characters (i.e. %night_build_view% or %import_view%), times are surrounded with at characters (i.e. @D20050211@ or @d4@),


The use of Dynamic Variables is also allowed (i.e. so (&) can be used to represent the current VOB_owner).

Pattern Matching is also allowed; the '*' char matches any string, the '?' character match any single chararacter and the '#' character matches any single digit. All users can be represented by a "(*)" string, all groups can be represented as <*> all VOBs can be represented as [*], all elements can be represented as {*} and all views can be represented as %*%:

The use of Alias Names is also allowed; an ~alias may be used to identify a large number of (users), <groups>, {elements}, [VOBs], [VOB:replicas], %views% or @times@. Alias references (i.e. ~interns must have a trailing space after the alias name in the reference.
