Selecting a registry server host

One host in the network acts as the DevOps Code ClearCase® registry server host. The DevOps Code ClearCase client and server processes use this host to determine the locations of all DevOps Code ClearCase data structures (VOBs and views) on the network.

For example, the registry server is consulted when a VOB or view is activated, and when the data container for a derived object is promoted from the view storage to the VOB storage. The registry server host must be highly available. If the registry server host becomes unavailable, all users will be unable to access DevOps Code ClearCase VOBs and views.
