Posted: Dec 08, 2010 09:25:35 AM I have a user who created a hardlink on an element with a lot of history and other users have checkouts on other branches of the element. How do remove his mistake without distrubing all of the other users?

Posted: Dec 08, 2010 04:28:04 PM   in response to: vobadm in response to: vobadm's post cleartool rmname will work just fine here. A "hardlink" is just a directory entry. And removing it is harmless as long as there are other directory versions that refer to it correctly.
