lsview

In ClearCase, the lsview command lists all views registered for the current network region by default, whether or not they are active. The default output line for each listed view shows:

• Whether the view is active on the host (* indicates the active dynamic view; active snapshot views are listed, but not annotated with a *)
  Note: lsview does not report unmounted local views as active even if they have running servers. Also, lsview does not report removed views as active.
• The view tag
• The view-storage directory path name

Default

ClearCase: See the section ClearCase: Default output.

-s/hort

Restricts the listing to view tags only.

-l/ong

cleartool: Expands the listing to include all information stored in the view registry regarding the listed views. The network accessibility information includes the global path to the view if a value is set for this property; otherwise, lists the host name and host-local path only.

rcleartool: For a Web view that resides on the client, also lists the server URL, client path, region, view attributes, view owner, and view UUID. For a Web view that resides on the server, also lists the region, view attributes, view owner, and view UUID.

-pro/perties [ -ful/l | -text_mode ]

Reports the following properties:

• When and by whom the view was created, last modified, and last accessed
• Permissions for the view owner, view group members, and others

With the -full option, reports the following additional properties:

• When and by whom view-private data was last accessed
• When and by whom a view-private object was last updated
• When and by whom the config spec was last updated
• For a dynamic view, when and by whom a derived object was last created, promoted, and winked in
• For a dynamic view, whether it creates shareable derived objects or nonshareable derived objects
• The view's text mode
• Whether the view is a dynamic view, snapshot view, or a web view
• Whether the view is read-only or writable
• Whether the view is in automatic-hijack mode

With the -text_mode option, additionally reports the view's text mode.

-age

Reports when and by whom the view was last accessed. Because view access events are updated only every 60 seconds, lsview might not report all recent events.

Default

ClearCase: Views registered for the local network region.

-hos/t hostname

Confines the listing to views whose storage directories reside on host hostname. If the CLEARCASE_RGY_QUICK environment variable is set, uses the -quick option.

-quick

Provides faster lookup for the -host option by listing views as currently stored in the registry.

Note: Physical storage is not examined, and aliases and IP addresses are not resolved. Therefore, changes that occurred since a view's creation might not be reflected in the listing. Also note that the lookup of entries is case-sensitive.

The CLEARCASE_RGY_QUICK EV causes lsview -host to use the -quick functionality. For example, by setting this EV you can change the run-time behavior of -host in scripts without modifying the scripts.

The -host option and CLEARCASE_RGY_QUICK EV have no effect if the -region option is also used and the region is specified with a wildcard.

-reg/ion network-region

Confines the listing to the views registered for a particular network region. (The mkview and mktag commands have a -region option, which can be used to assign view tags to specific network regions.) The network-region argument can include pattern-matching characters as described in wildcards_ccase. If the network-region argument includes pattern-matching characters, enclose it in single quotes.

-cvi/ew

Lists the current view. On UNIX and Linux systems, lsview lists the working directory view, if there is one; otherwise, it lists the set view.

view-tag ...

Specifies a single view to be listed. The view must be registered, but it need not be active to be listed with lsview. The view-tag argument can include pattern-matching characters as described in the wildcards_ccase reference page. Enclose in single-quotes any view-tag argument that includes pattern-matching characters.

-sto/rage view-storage-dir-pname ...

One or more views, identified by full path names to their storage directories.

-uui/d view-uuid

A single view, specified by its UUID (universal unique identifier).

-cop/yarea copyarea-pname....

Copy area of the web view; not applicable to automatic views.

-local

Specifies CCRC views (web and automatic views) that reside on the local host.

-web

List only web views on the local host.

-automatic

List only automatic views on the local host.
