  93                   <h2>Global File System Area - SCM</h2>
  94
  95 <p>I'm just trying to understand a little bit better about global paths, replication and DFS here at Broadcom. I ask because I see that this new SCM directory that I created over in Irvine is not at other sites as I would have expected it. For example:</p>
  96
  97 <div class="code"><pre>
  98 ccase-rmna-3:ls -d /projects/ccase/SCM
  99 ls: /projects/ccase/SCM: No such file or directory
 100 ccase-rmna-3:ls /projects/ccase | wc -l
 101      17
 102 </pre></div>
 103
 104 <p>and</p>
 105
 106 <div class="code"><pre>
 107 ccase-sj1-1:ls -d /projects/ccase/SCM
 108 ls: /projects/ccase/SCM: No such file or directory
 109 ccase-sj1-1:ls /projects/ccase | wc -l
 110      16
 111 </pre></div>
 112
 113 <p>However</p>
 114
 115 <div class="code"><pre>
 116 x-irva-01:ls -d /projects/ccase/SCM
 117 /projects/ccase/SCM/
 118 x-irva-01:ls /projects/ccase | wc -l
 119       24
 120 </pre></div>
 121
 122 <p>So then the SCM directory exists in Irvine but not in SJ nor Richmond. I suspect that it's merely that something needs to replicate it and maybe I just need to wait until that happens. Still such a delay in replication is a side effect we must bear in mind when we are pushing out changes... Also, notice the different directory counts at the three sites above...</p>
 123
 124 <p>WRT Windows and DFS, my Z drive is mapped to \\brcm-sj\dfs and I therefore do not have a Z:\projects\ccase\SCM directory there either:</p>
 125
 126 <div class="code"><pre>
 127 Local:ls -d /dev/z/projects/ccase/SCM
 128 ls: /dev/z/projects/ccase/SCM: No such file or directory
 129 Local:ls /dev/z/projects/ccase | wc -l
 130 16
 131 </pre></div>
 132
 133 <p>I suspect this correlates to ccase-sj1-1:/projects/ccase/SCM and whenever that directory gets populated so will my Z drive.</p>
 134
 135 <p>Again, it might be that replication will eventually happen or that it need to be set up. But we must understand that pushing something to some "global" place in Irvine, SJ or Richmond has a built in prorogation delay.</p>
 136
 137 <p>Finally, it seems to me that the intent of the projects automount map is to provide a well known path to global file space that exists on filers at the various sites and that replication between the filers happens on some known schedule. Scripts or other processes should "reach out" to the filer storage area they they know (e.g. \\brcm-irv\dfs\projects\ccase...) rather they should use the automount map (i.e. /projects/ccase) so as to avoid having to go out on the WAN to get stuff. For Unix this is pretty simplified in that the automounter and the projects automount map normalizes this to just /projects/<project>/<etc>. But can it be said that the same is true under Windows for the Z drive and DFS? By that I mean can I rely on Z:\projects\ccase\SCM to be the right place? If so then I will change my Perl code to set $lib_path = "Z:\\projects\\ccase\\SCM\\lib".</p>
