How to remove a checkout without any view reference in clearcase? -

i have file in lost+found checkedout not see viewreference. how can remove file?

i'm checking in windows system. when version tree, see view created in unix system. i'm not able uuid of same.

how can delete such file?

for checked out state, should able view uuid in same way in previous question "how delete check-outs particular view in clearcase?".

that lost+found folder part of vob , cleartool describe -b vob:\avob should list uuid of unix view.

but if not sure uuid matches actual name of old view see in version tree, can check name directly in registry server.

there different option:

 cleartool rgy_check -views  

but also, since have access registry server, can simple grep of name in var/rgy folder view_tag is:

<user>@<server> /path/to/clearcase/var/rgy $ grep -i <view_name> view_* view_object:-entry=view_object;-hostname=server;-local_path=path/to/<view_name>.vws;-owner=<name>;-view_uuid=e670fe8a.fb0540e5.83f4.7f:82:a6:s8:e1:1a;-attributes=sumview; view_tag:-entry=view_tag;-tag=<view_name>;-title=<title_view>;-hostname=server;-global_path=\\server\views\path\to\<view_name>.vws;-region=<region>;-view_uuid=e670fe8a.fb0540e5.83f4.7f:82:a6:s8:e1:1a; 

that way, name, uuid , can remove checked out state vob.

regarding file (in lost+found), see technote "about lost+found directory", mentioned in "how retrieve file if undid folder checkout in clearcase?".

there 2 possible ways remove object root of lost+found:

• the object can moved new location in vob using cleartool mv command
• the object can permanently deleted vob.

be careful second option (which involves rmelem), in ucm (where object have in previous versions baseline labels attached them)
