The Host tab of the Host Properties dialog box displays various properties of a host running IBM ClearCase.
The following properties are read-only:
- Host: The host name
- Platform: The processor architecture
- Operating system: The name of the operating system
- Operating system version: The version of the operating system
- Automount prefix: For UNIX hosts, the contents of the automount_prefix file.
- Alternate host names: For hosts that have multiple network interfaces, the contents of the host's alternate_hostnames file.
Note: For more information about the
automount_prefix and
alternate_hostnames files, see the
config_ccase reference page.
The following properties are modifiable if the host supports remote administration and you are a member of the ClearCase administrators group, or if the host is the local host:
- Host Region: A ClearCase registry region is a tag namespace shared by a subset of registry clients, all of which construct network pathnames in the same way. In mixed networks of Windows and UNIX hosts that share VOBs and use dynamic views, the registry must have separate Windows and UNIX regions. Windows hosts are members of the Windows region; UNIX hosts are members of the UNIX region. Both regions are served by the same registry server.
- Peer Region (Windows hosts only): The name of a UNIX region served by the host's registry server. This is the region from which the region synchronizer application imports VOB and view tags for use by Windows hosts.
