Completing the Options page

If you cleared the option This VOB will contain UCM components on the Name and Parameters page of the VOB Creation Wizard, you are now prompted to specify an administrative VOB to be associated with the VOB you are creating. The administrative VOB is a repository for global types of objects that VOBs can share.

If you selected the option This VOB will contain UCM components, you are then prompted to select a project VOB to associate with the VOB you are creating.

When you create components, DevOps Code ClearCase makes AdminVOB hyperlinks between the components and the PVOB, and the PVOB assumes the role of administrative VOB.

Also on this page of the wizard, you can also specify if you want to create a public VOB, and reconnect at login.

After you click Finish, DevOps Code ClearCase displays a confirmation dialog box, listing your selections.

If you change your mind, you can click Cancel to return to the VOB Creation Wizard. Click Previous until you reach the page containing the options you want to change.

When you click OK, DevOps Code ClearCase creates the VOB and displays summary information in the Creating VOB message box.

Click Close to close the box.
