Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: * * User commands or applications which rely on the DOS drive * * pathname for a view/VOB context. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: * * Operations which rely on the full DOS drive pathname for a * * MVFS dynamic view/VOB path were receiving an incorrect * * string, which caused unexpected results from those * * operations. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * ****************************************************************
Problem conclusion
A string value in the ClearCase network provider module was corrected in ClearCase 8.0.1.10, to allow proper parsing of DOS drive paths into dynamic views.
