Is it possible to prevent users from delivering change sets to a stream ?

If I have a stream that is being actively developed on and want to stop changes being delivered to that stream after a certain date is it possible to just 'lock' the stream so it becomes read only ? I want to ensure no changes can sneak into a stream after a particular date.

https://jazz.net/library/article/215 describe the different options. There are read access patterns, write access permissions & preconditions on deliver which may help you depending on what you need exactly.

  • +1. BUt I am still stuck with RTC3.0, and some of those features are "New in RTC 4.0" ;) – VonC Nov 14 '12 at 14:34
  • FYI Upgrade from 3.x to 4.x is a lot easier than 2.x to 3.x. Minimal migration time, fewer steps. – jcam Nov 23 '12 at 01:56
  • Minimal migration time, fewer steps? Thousands of clients on several continents... The migration will be 6 months project, at best. – VonC Nov 23 '12 at 06:45

  • Excellent :) I have a meeting next week, to define and start that migration process. I will mention your comment ;) – VonC Nov 23 '12 at 11:46

You can try and change the ownership as well as the visibility of the stream, in order to set it to a team (which would exclude most of the members of the project area except a select few).

You can associate to that team the deliver right in the process area / Team configuration / permissions configuration section.
This is what that thread alludes to.
