Finding individual files

You can use the mvfsstorage command to find container files for versions, derived objects, and view-private files.

About this task

The data containers for all MVFS files are stored within a VOB or view storage directory, as shown in the following table.
Table 1. Storage directories for MVFS files
Kind of file Storage directory
Version (checked-in) VOB source storage pool (s subdirectory of the VOB storage directory).
Checked-out version View-private data storage (.s subdirectory of the view storage directory)
Unshared or nonshareable derived object View-private data storage (.s subdirectory of the view storage directory)
Shared derived object VOB derived object storage pool (d subdirectory of the VOB storage directory)
View-private file View-private data storage (.s subdirectory of the view storage directory)

The following examples show how the ccase-home-dir/etc/mvfsstorage utility locates the physical storage for an MVFS file.
