This depends on how many people you have, and various other factors such
as how your systems are laid out, whether you are doing any Windows work
(Windows clients are _much_ more work to support in ClearCase than UNIX
clients), etc. We have 200+ developers, all UNIX, and we have one and a
half people that do our ClearCase maintenance on our servers _plus_ (a)
all official product builds, (b) two or three "weekly builds", (c)
various other process-level stuff (triggers, branch creation, etc.), (d)
random other things :). I also depends on what you count as
"administration"; these people don't do any hardware or OS admin for the
servers, nor do they do any network setup.
Of course, we've been using ClearCase for over 7 years so we our admins
have a very high level of expertise in the tool by now.
