Arguments
You can use the following arguments when you run the RCCCOD function:
- The name of the platform that contains the DevOps Code ClearCase® VOB. Allowable values: WINDOWS or UNIX®.
- The type of DevOps Code ClearCase environment. Allowable values: UCM or NONUCM.
- The type of DevOps Code ClearCase view. Allowable values: SNAPSHOT or DYNAMIC.
- The TCP/IP address or DNS name of the machine that contains the DevOps Code ClearCase VOB. This address must be a valid TCP/IP address or DNS name.
- The TCP/IP port number used to contact the host specified by the host argument. Allowable values: 0-65535.

- The user ID on the distributed system on which you are running DevOps Code ClearCase and the server component of TSO Client.
- The code page for the input, output, and build script files on the client. Code page conversion occurs only on text files. This argument is optional.
- The code page used on the server. This argument is optional.
- The code page for the distributed system's locale. This option defaults to the same value as is specified with the client codepage client_codepage argument. This argument is optional.

Example
Check out a directory dir1 from the DevOps Code ClearCase VOB testvob.
The VOB resides on a computer running Windows® with an IP address of 9.48.114.54.
The server component of TSO Client is installed in the C:\Program Files\IBM Rational\ClearCase\bin\ directory and is running with auth mode 0, using port 4000.
The NONUCM, DYNAMIC view has been assigned to the Z drive.
The following REXX™ commands could be used to invoke the RCCCOD API function:
pltf = ‘WINDOWS'
cctype = ‘NONUCM'
vtype = ‘DYNAMIC'
host = ‘9.48.114.54'
port = ‘4000'
dir = ‘C:\Program Files\IBM Rational\ClearCase\bin\userID'
comment = ‘this is the check out directory comment'
disuser = ‘userone'
Parse Value RCCCOD(pltf,cctype,vtype,host,port,dir,comment,disuser)
With rccret rccrsn rccmsg
Output
For a list of the output data sets corresponding to the RCCLOG1, RCCOUT, and RCCERR file names, see RCCUALOC.
For a description of the log entries in RCCLOG1, see RCCULOG.
For an example listing of the log, see Example of a log entry.
RCCOUT contains verification that the directory was checked out.
RCCOUT example
After a successful completion of the API call in the previous example, RCCOUT contains the following message:
Checked out "Z:\testvob\dir1\" from version "\main\3".
