1). Stop the view.
Run cleartool endview <view-tag>
Note: For ClearCase only, any host that has a dynamic view started with the old name after the rename has been completed will need to be rebooted to clear the MVFS.
2). Kill the view_server process. Run cleartool endview -server <view-tag>
Note: Stopping the ClearCase services on the host will also kill the process; refer to technote 1134178 for directions on stopping the services.
3). Remove the view-tag.
Run cleartool rmtag -view <view-tag> to untag the view.
4). Remove the ClearCase registry entry.
Run cleartool unregister -view <view-storage-pname>.vws to unregister the view object.
5). Rename the view storage directory:
UNIX or Linux
mv <old-view-storage> <new-view-storage>.vws
Windows
rename <old-view-storage> <new-view-storage>.vws
6). Register the new name of the view storage.
Run cleartool register -view <view-storage-pname>.vws
7). Create a new tag for the view.
Run cleartool mktag -view -tag <view-tag> <view-storage-pname>.vws
8). Start the view.
Run cleartool startview <new-view-tag>
