A VOB (versioned object database) is a data repository that holds the files, directories, and any objects that collectively represent a product or a development effort.

As the project manager, when you use UCM as the process for managing your projects, you are responsible for setting up the project environment, referred to as a UCM project. During the creation of the UCM project, DevOps Code ClearCase® creates the project VOB as well as the development and integration streams. This subject is covered in the module Setting up a UCM project.

When you use base DevOps Code ClearCase®, you have to create the VOBs manually.

This module covers the following topics:

• Types of VOBs
• Creating a VOB using the VOB Creation Wizard (Windows)
• Creating a VOB on Linux and UNIX
