Can I create a snapshot view with an old baseline without creating a new stream from the source stream? I have been creating a child stream and pointing it to the old baseline; then making a snapshot of the newly created stream with the old baseline.
Not really a big deal just curious if there is another way

    If the baseline is a full baseline, then yes, you can create a base snapshot view with a config spec like:

     element * CHECKEDOUT
 element /Vob/Component/... YourBaselineId
 element * /main/0

    See “What is the difference between Full baseline and Incremental baseline in Clearcase UCM?” to know more about the importance of using a full baseline for base ClearCase views.

    Otherwise, your method (sub-stream, rebase, mkview) is the standard one, creating an UCM view based on the configuration of the sub-stream.
