Administering HCL VersionVault
Learn about performing administrative tasks for an HCL VersionVault community including managing software licenses, user and group accounts, VersionVault server and client hosts, shared data, and the network that connects them.
VOB administration
Because VOBs are the principal repository for artifacts under HCL VersionVault control, VOB administration is one of the HCL VersionVault administrator’s most important tasks.
Creating VOBs
Any user with access to a suitable server host can create a VOB.
Public and private VOBs
To provide control over how a VOB is mounted, each VOB tag is designated as public or private when it is created.
Creating a public VOB
You must know the HCL VersionVault registry password to create a public VOB.

Creating a public VOB

You must know the HCL VersionVault registry password to create a public VOB.

About this task

To create a public VOB, you must specify –public on the mkvob command line or select the Make this a public VOB check box in the VOB Creation Wizard. You must also supply the HCL VersionVault registry password.

If you specify –public but do not know the HCL VersionVault registry password (or this password has not been established), the VOB is created without a tag, and you must create the tag in a separate operation. For more information about this password, see Setting and using the HCL VersionVault registry password and the rgy_passwd reference page.
