Re: [cciug] Merging Problem

Bittoo:

I think what is happening here is that you are performing the merge
to /main on the original (which masters /main), which is correct.
The view (-ftag) you are trying to use does not live on the same
machine as the original vob. It lives on the replica machine (vob a).
Unless your view storage is located on a machine (say machineX) where
both machines (original vob machine and vob a machine) can see this
area, I don't think you do the merge via -ftag. Why not do the merge
via label? Just ask the replica site to make sure that labels are
applied to all relevant files/directories (ct findmerge . -fversion
LABELNAME -print/-merge)
