About this task

The VersionVault Navigator view and the VersionVault Details view display the integration streams, baselines, and activities in UCM project VOBs (PVOBs). Using these views, you can also perform VersionVault operations on the metadata, such as creating and recommending baselines.

Procedure

To explore VersionVault component VOB and project VOB metadata:
  1. If you are using a Web view or automatic view, in the VersionVault Navigator view click the plus sign (+) to the left of the VersionVault node that is followed by the name of the server machine that you want to explore. If you are using a Dynamic view, click the plus sign (+) to the left of the view name or the VersionVault Local node.
    The Component VOBs and the Project VOBs folders appear.
  2. For metadata concerning UCM components, click the plus sign (+) to the left of the Component VOBs folder to reveal the UCM project components on that server machine, then click the plus sign (+) to the left of a component folder to reveal the Branch Types and Label Types folders. When you select either the Branch Types folder or the Label Types folder, the associated branch or label metadata appears in the VersionVault Details view.
  3. For metadata concerning PVOBs, click the plus sign (+) to the left of the Project VOBs folder to display the UCM projects on the currently selected VersionVault server machine, then click the plus sign (+) to the left of a UCM project name to display the Components and Projects folders. You can navigate through the Projects folder in the VersionVault Navigator view to display the Activities, Baselines, and Views and substreams associated with the integration stream integration stream icon of each UCM project in the VersionVault Details view. You can also right-click the metadata in the VersionVault Navigator and VersionVault Details views to perform VersionVault operations.
