To move an element from the lost+found directory

About this task

Tip: You do not need to load the lost+found directory to complete this procedure from a snapshot view.

Procedure

  1. To see the UUID of the element, enter the following command:
    • On the UNIX system and Linux:
      % ls VOB-path/lost+found

    • On Windows systems:

      
dir VOB-path\lost+found

    Each file in the lost+found directory is named as element-name.UUID.

  2. To move an element to another directory within the VOB, enter the following command:
    • On the UNIX system and Linux:
      
cleartool mv VOB-path/lost+found/element-name.UUID \ 
destination-path
      For example, from a dynamic view:
      % cleartool mv \
/guivob/lost+found/prog.c.5f6815a0a2ce11cca54708006906af65 \ 
/guivob/int/prog.c

      
% cleartool rmelem \
/guivob/lost+found/prog.c.5f6815a0a2ce11cca54708006906af65
      For example, from a snapshot view:
      
% cd ~/pat_v1.4_cropcircle_sv

% cleartool mv \
guivob/lost+found/prog.c.5f6815a0a2ce11cca54708006906af65 \
guivob/int/prog.c
    • On Windows systems:
      
cleartool mv VOB-path\lost+found\element-name.UUID ^

More? destination-path
      For example, from a dynamic view:
      
> cleartool mv ^ 

More? H:\guivob\lost+found\prog.c.5f6815a0a2ce11cca54708006906af65 ^

More? H:\guivob\int\prog.c

      
> cleartool rmelem ^

More? H:\guivob\lost+found\prog.c.5f6815a0a2ce11cca54708006906af65
      For example, from a snapshot view:
      
> cd c:\pat_v1.4_cropcircle_sv

> cleartool mv ^

More? guivob\lost+found\prog.c.5f6815a0a2ce11cca54708006906af65 ^

More? guivob\int\prog.c
  3. To move an element to a different VOB, use cleartool relocate.
