Hello,

When I am trying to checkout any file from my View(dynamic),  then machine restarts (windows reboots).

This is really irritating me.

The view storage directory is stored on the local machine. These views were in use for more than a year or so.

ClearCase installed on it.

Details:

ClearCase 7.0.1.0

Microsoft XP SP3

Symantec AntiVirus 11.0.6200.754

 

Thanks in advance,

 

BR,

/ Jag.

Hi Bob,

Thanks for your contact.
I am using clearcase 7.0.1.0 and windows XP SP3.

My dynamic view is in F: drive and I have full permissions to my system and ALBD service is also have permissions and the service is running as well.
I have 10GB free space in F drive and 25 GB free space in C drive.

Other users are not facing this issue. This is bit interesting me.
I am really worried for this situation.

NOTE: I have seen some solution in link, https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/forums/html/topic?id=77777777-0000-0000-0000-000013757248

But I dont have new mvfs50.sys file as they suggsted in above link.

Thanks,
Jagadish

Hi Jag,

what version of ClearCase are you using?
what version of Windows?

Did you take a look at the event log?

You said that you had a dynamic view installed locally so please confirm that the view storage area is on the C: drive.

Do you have local admin rights on your machine?
Does the clearcase_albd service account have admin rights as well?
Did you check the event log? ** IMPORTANT **

Did you try creating another dynamic view on this machine?
How much disk space do you have on this machine?
Are there other users and are they having trouble as well or are they using ClearCase (in the same manner) without trouble?
