It is not easy for me to do this on a local file system. There are over 30000 files I would need to transfer.
Additionally, I found a circular dependency. The way the clearcase file system works, if I do:
ls /view/<viewname>
I basically see the same thing as
ls /
So it means that under /view/<viewname> will be a directory /view/<viewname>/view/<viewname>, so I think DZ's scan will never end!
Also, BC has no problems with this remote file system and finishes the job in seconds, while DZ is still spinning.
Check that DZ is only scanning the required directories, I think you will see that if you have:
dir1/dir2/dir3
dir1/dir4
That if you give an ant pattern dir1/dir2/**
That DZ will still scan dir1/dir4 when it doesn't need to.
Since I have so many other directories, and there is a circular nature to them, DZ never stops.
