  98                   <p>Chris, if you can spare a Windows machine to host the views (meaning to run the view_server processes on) then I believe the following stgloc would be your best answer:</p>
  99
 100 <div class="code"><pre>
 101 $ your_filer=&lt;your_filer&gt;
 102 $ your_share=&lt;your_share&gt;
 103 $ your_windows_view_server=&lt;your_windows_view_server&gt;
 104 $ p=\\\\$your_filer\\$your_share\\viewstore
 105 $ cleartool mkstgloc -view -force -host $your_windows_view_server \
 106 &gt; -hpath $p -gpath $p viewstore $p
 107 </pre></div>
 108
 109 <p>This would create a "stgloc" which can be used in mkview:</p>
 110
 111 <div class="code"><pre>
 112 $ cleartool mkview -tag &lt;tag&gt; -stgloc viewstore (or -auto)
 113 </pre></div>
 114
 115 <p>Users can also select this stgloc in the Clearcase Explorer GUI. Views will be placed on $your_filer and served by $your_windows_view_server (meaning view_server processes will run there and that that machine should have a static IP).</p>
 116
 117 <p>Views can be cross tagged into the Linux region with:</p>
 118
 119 <div class="code"><pre>
 120 $ cleartool mktag -view -tag defaria2 -host 10.136.65.5 -hpath \\\\fs-rmna-01\\ccstgloc-cabu\\viewstore\\BROADCOM\\adefaria\\defaria2.vws -gpath /projects/ccstgloc-cabu/viewstore/BROADCOM/adefaria/defaria2.vws
 121 /projects/ccstgloc-cabu/viewstore/BROADCOM/adefaria/defaria2.vws
 122 cleartool: Warning: Storage pathname "/projects/ccstgloc-cabu/viewstore/BROADCOM/adefaria/defaria2.vws"
 123 may not reside on host "10.136.65.5".
 124 </pre></div>
 125
 126 <p><b>Notes:</b></p>
 127
 128 <ul>
 129   <li>I specified host as an IP address because the test "server" I was using was using DHCP (IOW nslookup pcrmna-ccrmt02 doesn't work from Unix)</li>
 130
 131   <li>Backslashes are doubled because bash collapses them</li>
 132
 133   <li>The host path (-hpath) must be a valid path <b>from the host's point of view</b>. The host (pcrmna-ccrmt02 in this case) is a Windows box thus a UNC style path is used for -hpath.</li>
 134
 135   <li>The global path (-gpath) must be a valid path <b>from the client's point of view</b>. Since we are cross tagging to Linux the path is a Unix style path (in the automount map) of /projects/ccstgloc-cabu/viewstore... You're directory under /projects would be different.</li>
 136
 137   <li>View creation and serving on Windows machines is Windows domain aware. What they do is create a directory for the domain (e.g. BROADCOM) then a directory for the user (e.g. adefaria) then the view directory is created (defaria2) with an  appended .vws. This is Windows specific behavior, hence you see and additional
 138 .../BROADCOM/adefaria/defaria2.vws.</li>
 139
 140   <li>You need not use the name or directory "viewstore". This is just an example. I've seen others user the directory name of say vws. Also the stgloc need not be named viewstore - you might use bt-filer-views or whatever.</li>
 141 </ul>
 142
 143 <p>Now you can similarly create a Unix oriented stgloc if you want:</p>
 144
 145 <div class="code"><pre>
 146 $ your_share=&lt;your_share&gt;
 147 $ your_linux_view_server=&lt;your_linux_view_server&gt;
 148 $ p=/projects/$your_share/viewstore
 149 $ cleartool <span>mkstgloc</span> -view -force -host $your_linux_view_server \
 150 &gt; -hpath $p -gpath $p viewstore $p
 151 </pre></div>
 152
 153 <p>And then your users can cross tag them into the Windows region using the Region Synchronize tool (Note: It will fail initially as it cannot determine what the UNC path needs to be so the users will have to specify that) or by the command line:</p>
 154
 155 <div class="code"><pre>
 156 $ your_filer=&lt;your_filer&gt;
 157 $ your_share=&lt;your_share&gt;
 158 $ your_linux_view_server=&lt;your_windows_linux_server&gt;
 159 $ p=\\\\$your_filer\\$your_share\\viewstore
 160 $ cleartool mktag -view -tag adefaria_linux -host $your_linux_view_server \
 161 &gt; -hpath /projects/$your_share/viewstore/adefaria_linux.vws \
 162 &gt; -gpath $p\\adefaria_linux.vws $p\\adefaria_linux.vws
 163 </pre></div>
 164
 165 <p>The advantages here are:</p>
 166 <ul>
 167   <li>Your Linux server bears the brunt of serving views since the view_server processes run there</li>
 168 </ul>
 169
 170 <p>The disadvantages are:</p>
 171
 172 <ul>
 173   <li>Users can't create views using this stgloc from Windows</li>
 174
 175   <li>Users must cross tag views to their Windows region</li>
 176
 177   <li>Windows users don't like the command line.</li>
