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.
Troubleshooting VOB access problems
Several common problems can prevent access to VOBs.
Enabling setuid execution on Linux and the UNIX system
If you need to run setuid executables in a dynamic view, additional configuration is required.

Enabling setuid execution on Linux and the UNIX system

If you need to run setuid executables in a dynamic view, additional configuration is required.

About this task

By default, the viewroot and VOB file systems are mounted with setuid and setgid disabled. If you must enable hosts to mount these file systems with setuid and setgid enabled (for example, if you run setuid tools from a VOB), run versionvault-home-dir/etc/utils/change_suid_mounts to enable it for a single host.

The effects of running change_suid_mounts on a host do not persist across installations, and you must stop and restart HCL VersionVault on the host after running the script.
