Object group member

root (UNIX and Linux)
Member of the ClearCase administrators group (ClearCase on Windows)

Locks

An error occurs if one or more of these objects are locked: VOB, element type, element, branch type, branch, hyperlink type. For non-file-system objects, an error occurs if the VOB, object, object type, or hyperlink type is locked.

Options and arguments

Event records and comments

Default: Creates one or more event records, with commenting controlled by your .clearcase_profile file (default: –nc). See the comments reference page. Comments can be edited with chevent.
–c/omment comment | –cfi/le comment-file-pname |–cq/uery | –cqe/ach | –nc/omment: Overrides the default with the option you specify. See the comments reference page.

Specifying the hyperlinks to be removed

Default

None.

hlink-selector ...

One or more names of hyperlink objects, in this form:

hyperlink-type-name@hyperlink-ID[@pname-in-vob]

Hyperlinks are not file system objects; you cannot specify them with command interpreter wildcards. The final component is required only for a hyperlink in another VOB. For example:

DesignFor@598f RelatesTo@58843@/vobs/monet

Examples

The UNIX system and Linux examples in this section are written for use in csh. If you use another shell, you may need to use different quoting and escaping conventions.

The Windows examples that include wildcards or quoting are written for use in cleartool interactive mode. If you use cleartool single-command mode, you may need to change the wildcards and quoting to make your command interpreter process the command appropriately.

In cleartool single-command mode, cmd-context represents the UNIX system and Linux shells or Windows command interpreter prompt, followed by the cleartool command. In cleartool interactive mode, cmd-context represents the interactive cleartool prompt.
