The load rules for a ClearCase view specify the path names of directories and files to load from remote ClearCase repositories. When you first create a ClearCase view, it has no load rules. Until the view has at least one load rule, you cannot load any resources into it. To create load rules, you can use the Load Rules tab of the Edit Configuration dialog box, or you can use the ClearCase Navigator view to explore repository contents and load individual resources and resource hierarchies as you find them.
If you are using the Rational ClearCase Remote Client for Eclipse, you can use import project or import project set operations to create load rules and load project resources in a single operation.
