Removal of clearcase views involves any housekeepi

问题:

Removing views which outlived its purpose, simple removal(Removing a view and its related records from a VOB) or should we perform any sort of housekeeping on the branches, elements etc. the views have been used to amend?

回答1:

No: the versions/branches can exist independently from the views.

You can simply do a cleatool rmview (in order to remove the tag and unregister the view).

The only cleanup you can do is to remove the checked out versions which are still recorded by a vob (even when a view has been removed):

cleartool descr -l vob:\avob | grep uuid

Then:

cleartool rmview --force -vob \avob -uuid an_uuid
