TroubleshootingThese topics cover a variety of procedures that administrators might need to follow to find and fix problems.
Fixing problems with existing views after relocating elementsAlthough the relocate command creates symbolic links to preserve a VOB’s historical namespace, you might need to make additional adjustments after relocating elements so that existing views and tools can access them.
Updating directory versions manuallyYou can modify the results of a relocate operation by adding and removing VOB symbolic links to specific directory versions manually. However, these operations alter the intended results of the relocate command, and they are rarely necessary.
Modifying newest version of source directory to catalog relocated elements

Modifying newest version of source directory to catalog relocated elements

About this task

In some relocate scenarios, the latest version of a relocated element’s parent directory does not catalog that relocated element. In some circumstances, you might want to add such cataloging manually, in the form of symbolic links.

Example

For example, the following command sequence updates the from-directory version bigdir@@\main\3 to see relocated directory, dir1, at its new location:

cd \new cleartool ln –slink –nco dir1 \bigdir@@\main\3\dir1
Modify non-checkedout directory version "\bigdir@@\main\3"? [no] yes
Link created: "\bigdir@@\main\3\dir1"
