mvfsstorage lists the pathname of an MVFS file's data container. The pathname may be within view-private storage, the source pool, or the cleartext pool, depending on the kind of file.
For a ... | mvfsstorage displays |
---|---|
View-private file (including checked-out versions, unshared derived objects, and nonshareable derived objects) | Pathname to the data container in the view's private storage area |
Version whose element uses a single data container file | Pathname to the data container in the VOB cleartext storage pool NOTE: If you have accessed the version recently, this is the actual pathname of the data container. If you have not accessed the version recently, this is the pathname to which ClearCase would extract the version. |
Version whose element uses a separate data container file for each version | Pathname to the data container in the VOB source storage pool |
mvfsstorage is intended for use in finding discrepancies in OS-level access rights between the view and the underlying MVFS storage. Such discrepancies may occur when you do not have access rights to the remote underlying storage (for example, in UNIX, the storage may be owned by root). If you encounter a permissions error that seems unfounded, run this utility as a diagnostic and ensure that you have valid access to the remote storage directory and specifically to the underlying data container pathname.
For a view-private file, compare view-level ownership and permissions against those on the file's underlying storage location.
% ls -l unixV7 `/usr/atria/etc/mvfsstorage unixV7`
-rwxrwxrwx 1 nobody 65534 2210032 May 12 09:33 /net/myhost/home/myview/
.s/0008.VOB/016D.2E2F.unixV7*
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root sys 2210032 May 12 09:33 unixV7*
For a local view-private file, return data on the file's underlying storage location.

D:\myviews\anneview.vws\.s\0008\016D.2E2F.util.c
For a remote VOB file, return data on the file's underlying storage location.
