VOB datatypes and administrative VOB hierarchies
There are many types of VOB metadata. Some are unique to a particular VOB, but many must be managed consistently across a group of VOBs that store related artifacts (components of a UCM project, for example). These topics introduce VOB metadata and describe how to use administrative VOB hierarchies to simplify sharing of type objects among related VOBs.
Administrative VOB hierarchies and global types
Managing type objects that are used in a group of related VOBs is greatly simplified by creating administrative VOB hierarchies that can share globally defined type objects.
Removing an administrative VOB

Removing an administrative VOB

About this task

When you remove an administrative VOB with the rmvob command or by using the DevOps Code ClearCase® Administration Console, related hyperlinks are cleaned up automatically:

All AdminVOB hyperlinks to the VOB are removed.
All GlobalDefinition hyperlinks connecting to global types in the VOB are removed.
All local copies (in other VOBs in the hierarchy) of global types defined in the VOB are converted to ordinary types.
