Removing a VOB from an administrative VOB hierarchy

To remove a VOB from an administrative VOB hierarchy, remove its AdminVOB hyperlink and then remove all of the global definition hyperlinks that support the global types in it. (You cannot use these procedures on a UCM component VOB or PVOB.)

If you are not using UCM, you can break the relationship between a VOB and its administrative VOB by removing the AdminVOB hyperlink and all GlobalDefinition hyperlinks from the VOB to the administrative VOB. You must remove all such hyperlinks to sever the connection. The following topics describe how to remove the hyperlinks by using cleartool commands. You can also use the Rational® ClearCase® Administration Console.

Note: You cannot use these procedures on a UCM component VOB or PVOB. If you need to remove a UCM component VOB or PVOB from an administrative VOB hierarchy, contact IBM Software Support for Rational products.
