Specify UNC paths under which DevOps Code ClearCase clients can create VOB and view storage
You are being prompted to specify the UNC paths on this server host to advertise as server storage locations and make available to client hosts for creating VOB and view storage directories. UNC paths to server storage locations cannot include spaces.
You can specify locations in two ways:
- Click Browse to search for and select a directory in which to create storage locations on the host file system. The path to this directory cannot include spaces. See UNC paths chosen to register for DevOps Code ClearCase storage.
- Select an existing storage location on this server that contains VOB or view storage directories under Existing UNC paths to local ClearCase VOB and view storage and click Add. See Existing UNC paths to local DevOps Code ClearCase VOB and view storage.
UNC paths chosen to register for DevOps Code ClearCase storage
The top pane contains the UNC paths you want to advertise as server storage locations. As you specify paths, during a wizard session, they are added to the list.
- Name
- This is the name by which this storage location will be advertised to other DevOps Code ClearCase® hosts.
- UNC Path
- The path to the directory where the server storage location will be created.
- Type
- Indicates whether the server storage location is for VOB or view storage (enter VOB or view).
- Comment
- A comment can be added when setting storage location attributes.
- Reset
- Resets the configuration to what it was before you started the current wizard session.
- Remove
- Removes items from the list. (You must select the list items before clicking Remove.)
- Browse
- Browses the server file system to choose a directory in which to create one or more DevOps Code ClearCase server storage locations.
Existing UNC paths to local DevOps Code ClearCase VOB and view storage
The bottom pane contains a listing of all locations on this host that contain VOB or view storage directories. This list contains three columns:
- Type
- Indicates whether the location is designated for VOB or view storage.
- Registered
- Indicates whether the location is currently advertised to DevOps Code ClearCase clients
for creating VOB or view storage directories.
- A value of yes means that the storage location is registered.
- A value of no means that the storage location is not registered.
- A value of no - Old Style means that the storage location is registered but was created by an earlier release of DevOps Code ClearCase and will not be usable by clients running DevOps Code ClearCase 4.1 or later versions.
- UNC Path
- The path to the location.
You can select items in this list and add them to the locations currently available to client hosts by clicking Add. As you add locations, they appear in the list in the top pane. Any old style server storage locations that you add are updated to the current format, which makes them accessible to both old and new clients.
