Mount (or activate) VOBs to access source files from a
dynamic view.
About this task
When using dynamic views, you may need to activate or
reestablish access to a VOB by mounting it. Public VOBs are mounted
as part of the system start procedure of a Rational ClearCase host.
Procedure
- To mount a VOB, expand the My Views node
in the ClearTeam Navigator to display your views. If your Dynamic
view does not appear, right-click the My Views node
and select Start Dynamic View from the context
menu. Once the view has been started, expand the view name node. If
the node is empty, the VOB is not mounted. To display the VOB, click
the View Menu option list icon (the small, inverted triangle) that
is associated with the ClearTeam Navigator and select the Unmounted
VOBs option.
- Click the VOB name to automatically mount the VOB. If,
however, you have previously performed an Unmount VOB operation on
that VOB, it is not automatically mounted when you select it. In this
case, right-click the VOB name and select Mount VOB from
the context menu. The Mount VOB information message
box shows the status of the process and offers you the option of running
the process in the background.
