I am attempting to create a relative symbolic link via clearcase as so:
ct ln ../../../some/actual/file.txt file.txt
However, I get the following error:
cleartool: Error: Source "../../../some/actual/file.txt" and destination "file.txt" are in different versioned object bases.
In context of clearcase relative symbolic links, what does "different versioned object bases" mean?
First "in different versioned object bases" refers to VOBs, two different permanent data repositories in which you store files, directories, and metadata.
A cleartool ln
without the -slink
option would create a hardlink, that is an additional name for an existing element.
And:
