The ClearCase® Administration
Console uses the Microsoft Management Console (MMC) to manage VOBs, views, ClearCase hosts, and the ClearCase registry.
In the MMC console tree, the ClearCase node
is the root of the ClearCase Administration
Console. The ClearCase node
is an MMC snap-in. Its subnodes are other snap-ins that perform specific ClearCase administration
tasks.
Subnodes
- ClearCase on
the Web: Connects to the Web site for IBM ClearCase customers.
- Host: Manages VOBs,
views, scheduled jobs, and server logs on a single host. In the ClearCase Administration
Console, this is the local host, and the node has the name My Host in
the console tree. In ClearCase Host
Administration, the host can be the local host or another host on the network.
- All Views: Lists
all view tags in the local host's region of the ClearCase registry.
You can manage a view by selecting a view tag in the list.
- All VOBs: Lists
all VOB tags in the local host's region of the ClearCase registry.
You can manage a VOB by selecting a VOB tag in the list.
- ClearCase Registry:
Manages information in the ClearCase registry
to which the local host is assigned.
- ClearCase Network:
Lists all hosts that have contacted the local host's ClearCase registry
server or ClearCase license
server in the past 30 days. Each subnode is a Host node
for a host on the network, managing VOBs, views, scheduled jobs, and server
logs for that host.
Note: In a ClearCase network
that has many hosts, it is usually more efficient to open a new
Host console
to manage a specific host than it is to search for the host in the
ClearCase Network node.
