A View Object node lists a view object in the host's ClearCase registry. A view object includes the local pathname to the view storage directory on the host where it resides. This entry is used mainly by server processes running on the host.
When you select a view object in the list, actions become available for managing the view object and view storage.
Manage View Storage: Navigates to the View Storage node for the view. Here you can manage the view's disk space use, view tag, and view-private files.
Manage View Storage (New Console): Starts a new ClearCase Host Administration session for the host on which the view storage directory resides. In that session, navigates to the View Storage node for the view.
Remove View Object: Removes the view object entry from the ClearCase registry. You can use this action to unregister the view object entry when the view storage directory has been removed but the registry has not been updated. This action does not remove any view tags from the registry. To find all the view tags for the view, take the Manage View Storage action and then navigate to the View Tags subnode of the View Storage node.
Properties: Opens a dialog box in which you can view or edit properties of the view object entry in the registry.
