Subject: I Can't Migrate Data from Synchronicity DesignSync to Clearcase

Hi, John,

I need help.  I am facing some problems migrating data from Synchronicity
DesignSync repository into Clearcase VOB.

I've exported the DesignSync vault on to the default directory.  After
this, when I try to import the data using "clearfsimport", I am getting
the following error for many files.

   text_file_delta: Error: "<path>/tests.pl.rca" is not a 'text file': it
                           contains a '\000'.

   This object's type does not support check-in of binary data.

   Use a different type manager (such as compressed file).

   clearfsimport: Error: Type manager "text_file_delta" failed
                         create_version operation.

   clearfsimport: Error: Could not checkin "/vobs/vobname1/tests.pl.rca".

   clearfsimport: Warning: Trouble importing element
                           "/vobs/vobname1/tests.pl.rca".

Do your ESNUG readers have any tips or any idea that you can share with me?
