HI RK,

I'll try to answer the questions I understood.

1) A mount point is a mapping between a folder on the repository (DTR) and a folder on your file system. A mountpoint tells DTR client where to sync (on your local file system) which parts of the repository (DTR).

4)Typically, each developer should activate his/her own activities. The "activation" step basically means that you are ready to make the changes in this activity "public" to all. Yes, even "checkin" makes the changes public, but only to those working with the "inactive" workspace (So people in a small group working together can checkin their individual activities, and after making sure that all their changes work together, they can activiate them so that others outside the group can also make use of these changes).

If the System Admin wants to activate some activities, he can do that by using the user filter in the Activation View - you can set it to see pending activities of all users.

5) ISN represents "Integration Sequence Number", which is a number assigned to an activity when it is integrated (checked-in) into a workspace. It a monotonically increasing sequence of integers, so each activity that is integrated into a workspace gets a number higher than the previous one. (Since it tracks changes at the Workspace level, it is also a representation of a state - or version - of a workspace).

Hi RK,

Actually a "Mount Point" is a technical abstraction that a user normally does not have to care about - they are created automatically when you create a "client" or when you import a development configuration.

There is no detailed description available - I could only find this one: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/be/93d93f130f9115e10000000a155106/frameset.htm
