Process Execution

The client computer executes allCA Harvest SCM processes, with the exception of UDPs. If a process must run on a computer other than the client, you can define a UDP to run it.

CA Harvest SCM can only access directories on computers where a CA Harvest SCM agent is running. For example, during check-in processes verify that the files you want to check in are located on an appropriate client. When the files you want are on remote computers, you can use operating system tools, such as the Network File System from Sun Microsystems or the Distributed File System from the Open Software Foundation, to distribute the files.

External processes invoked through UDPs or notifications are executed in synchronous mode. After a user-defined or notification process starts, you cannot perform keyboard actions until the process completes.
