Creating a Base ClearCase Web View

Use the ClearCase® View Creation wizard to create a base ClearCase Web view.

As part of creating a ClearCase view, you connect to a CM server. You can use an existing connection or create a new one.

The View Creation Wizard automates the task of creating a base ClearCase view.

To create a base ClearCase Web view:

  1. Click Create View on the Front Desk toolbar. A window opens prompting you to select either a snapshot/dynamic view or a Web view.
  2. Select Web view and click OK.
  3. The Create View wizard opens. If no server is listed, click Connect to open the Change Management window. Login to the CM server. If you do not know the CM server web address, contact your ClearCase administrator.
  4. Click Next to use the existing server connection for the view.
  5. Complete the page and click Finish to create the view.
The new view appears in the Views page of the Front Desk.
After you have created the view, the wizard opens the Edit Configuration window, where you can create load rules and load the view with resources from ClearCase repositories. For more information about this and other ways to load resources, see Loading resources into a ClearCase view.
