  • 0

If I am in a vob (pwd command displays the correct vob) and lsvob <VOB_NAME> returns some info about the vob, how can I get a list of all the directories from the root? The setview command has also been run.

When I do ls, I get:

Error: Pathname is not within a VOB: "."

    cd /vobs/myvob
    cleartool ls
    # or 
    cleartool find . -type d -print
    

    The first one lists all elements within the view.
    The other one lists all the directories.


    The OP foampile mentions:

    cleartool mount /vob/<MY_VOB>
    i tried that but got:

    Mounting MVFS filesystem /vob/<MY_VOB>.... mount: Device busy
    

    The IBM page “mount: Device busy” can help.

    As long as:

    ct startview myDynamicView
    ct setview myDynamicView
    ct mount /vobs/MyVob
    cd /vobs/MyVob
    ct pwv
    

    gives:

    Working directory view: ** NONE ** 
    Set view: <MY_VIEW_ID>
    

    That is not good, and would point to a faulty config spec, as the IBM technote “
    Accessing a ClearCase VOB’s root folder yields “No such file or directory“
    ” illustrates.
