Check out window

Use this window to create a modifiable copy of a version in your view and specify related options.

If you are checking out files and directories from a UCM project, the window contains the additional options Activity, New, and Browse.

Comment
Enter text to describe the purpose for the checkout. This comment is part of the event record for the version. Commands that display event records show the comment as well.
Reserved
Set Reserved to perform a reserved checkout, which gives you the exclusive right to check in the element when you are done. A version can have at most one reserved checkout and any number of unreserved checkouts.

Clear this option to perform an unreserved checkout. With an unreserved checkout, you may need to merge from the latest version on the branch to your checked-out version before you can check in your version, if someone else checked in the same element before you did.

You can change a reserved checkout to an unreserved checkout. Click Versions > Change checkout > Reserved > Unreserved.

Unreserved if already reserved
Set Unreserved if already reserved to check out a version as unreserved if some other view already has a reserved checkout or if you only want to access the version without using the exclusive right.

Set Reserved and this check box if your preference is a reserved checkout but an unreserved checkout is acceptable. With an unreserved checkout, you may have to merge when you check the version in.

Set Reserved and clear this option if only a reserved checkout is acceptable.
