Create tags in the new region to make VOBs and views accessible
to clients in that region.
There are several ways to populate a newly created registry region
with tags:
- The Region Synchronizer, a Windows® GUI, makes it easy to import
VOB tags and view tags from a region on Linux® or the UNIX® system, to a region on Windows.
To start the Region Synchronizer, click . For help about using the Region Synchronizer, click Help in
the Synchronize ClearCase® Regions window
that opens when you start the Region Synchronizer. (There is no region synchronizer
application on Rational® ClearCase hosts
running Linux or
the UNIX system.)
- The Rational ClearCase Administration
Console provides a more general interface to regions and tags. It can be used
to manipulate tags regardless of which supported operating system the registry
host is running. You can use it to create and delete tags and to copy tags
to another region. When you use the Rational ClearCase Administration
Console to manipulate tags, you must change the global path of each tag to
make all of them valid for hosts in the new region. (The Region Synchronizer
automates this operation for the specific case of importing a tag from a region
on Linux or
on the UNIX system
to a region on Windows.)
- You can use the cleartool mktag command.
