1 Log on to the VOB’s current server as the VOB owner or privileged user. In this example, the VOB’s current server is \\sol.
2 Lock the VOB.
3 Stop ClearCase on the VOB server host.
4 Copy the VOB storage directory, preserving all ownership information. You must use a copy utility that preserves ownership information contained in the VOB storage directory ACLs. We recommend that you use the ClearCase utility ccase-home-dir\etc\utils\ccopy.exe for this purpose.
C:\ClearCaseStorage\VOBs> net use E: \\vobsvr01\vobstg
C:\ClearCaseStorage\VOBs> ccopy libpub.vbs E:\libpub.vbs
5 Restart ClearCase if you have copied the VOB storage directory to a new location on the same VOB server host.
6 Replace the VOB object and tag with new ones that reference the new VOB storage directory. Use the ClearCase Administration Console or the following commands (this example applies to the destination on server vobsvr01):
cleartool register –vob –replace \\vobsvr01\vobstg\libpub.vbs
cleartool mktag –vob –replace –tag \libpub \\vobsvr01\vobstg\libpub.vbs
7 Unlock the VOB.
8 Verify that all clients can access the VOB at the new location.
