Removing all GlobalDefinition hyperlinks

About this task

To remove all GlobalDefinition hyperlinks that connect local copies in the VOB to global types in the administrative VOB, use the following procedure.

Procedure

  1. Determine the names of all local copies of global attribute, branch, element, hyperlink, and label types:

    cleartool lstype –local –fmt "%n\t%[type_scope]p\n" –kind attype –invob \dev
    Tested         local copy
    Revision       ordinary
    ...

    cleartool lstype –local –fmt "%n\t%[type_scope]p\n" –kind brtype –invob \dev
    ...
    cleartool lstype –local –fmt "%n\t%[type_scope]p\n" –kind eltype –invob \dev
    ...
    cleartool lstype –local –fmt "%n\t%[type_scope]p\n" –kind hltype –invob \dev
    ...
    cleartool lstype –local –fmt "%n\t%[type_scope]p\n" –kind lbtype –invob \dev
    ...

  2. For each local copy, determine the name and ID of the hyperlink linking the local copy to its global type.
    For example:

    cleartool describe –local –long –ahlink GlobalDefinition attype:Tested
    Tested
      Hyperlinks:
        GlobalDefinition@58@\dev -> attype:Tested@\admin_dev

  3. Remove each hyperlink with the rmhlink command:

    cleartool rmhlink GlobalDefinition@58@\dev
    Removed hyperlink "GlobalDefinition@58@\dev".
