A defect associated with taskpads in the Microsoft Management
Console, versions 1.1 and 1.2, causes problems in the Rational® ClearCase® Administration
Console. The problem occurs when you follow this sequence of steps:
- Select the All VOBs or All Views node from the navigation bar of the Administration
Console. The program displays the associated taskpad.
- Select a VOB or view tag from the taskpad list, and then click Manage
storage.
- After the storage for that node has been successfully displayed, click
the MMC back navigation arrow to return to and display the previously selected
taskpad.
At this point, the taskpad list is blank. Use either of the following
methods to work around the problem:
- In taskpad mode, select ViewTaskpad to turn off
taskpad mode.
- Navigate to the taskpad with the back arrow and select Refresh from
the All VOBs or All Views node.
Note that with MMC version 1.1, resizing the console window refreshes
the list; resizing has no effect in MMC version 1.2
