We're trying to move a bunch of folders from one location to another in our vob. The process is that:
- we check out the target parent folder
- check out the source parent parent folder
- ct mv source target
This unfortunately fails with moving only the top folder in the tree... On the other hand ct relocate works fine and we avoid checking out thousands of vob elements. Are there any drawbacks with that command? We assume that the source and the target are in the same vob.
Then
cleartool mv
is enough: see "To move an element within a VOB"It won't move just the top element.
As mentioned in "Relocating elements to another VOB":
