Handling borderline elements
When an element is cataloged in more than one VOB directory, relocate classifies it as a borderline element if any directory in which it is catalogued is not displayed in the set of elements selected by the view in which you run relocate.
About this task
Borderline elements are often ones that have been moved with the cleartool mv command. To find borderline elements, run relocate with the –qall option,
When relocate –qall encounters a borderline element, it produces output such as this:
Element "main.c" is located outside the selection tree as "main.c"
in directory "\sources\libs",located inside the selection tree as
"main.c" in directory "\sources\proto\libs".
Do you want to relocate it? [no]
Either expand the selection set to relocate all versions of the element, or leave the element in place by accepting the default response to the prompt (no). If you relocate a borderline element, views that reference any version of the element that was not relocated cannot see the element. You might be able to correct this problem manually, as described in Fixing problems with existing views after relocating elements.
