Regular monitoring of VOB storage helps to ensure that the VOB
does not run out of storage space.
Rational® ClearCase® provides
command-line and GUI tools that display information about disk space used
by VOBs.
- In the Rational ClearCase Administration
Console, the VOB storage directory node for each VOB subnode
of a Rational ClearCase host
node shows current and historical disk space use for the VOB. The Derived
Objects subnode of a VOB storage node shows disk space used by
shared derived objects in the VOB and also lists views that hold references
to these DOs.
- The cleartool space –vob command shows current and
historical disk space use for a VOB.
- The cleartool dospace command shows disk space used
by shared derived objects in the VOB. The display also lists views that hold
references to these DOs.
Note: These tools depend on one or more scheduled jobs that generate
the VOB space data they display. If these jobs are not enabled or have not
been run, these tools do not produce any meaningful output. For more information
about scheduled jobs, see
Periodic maintenance.
