Error description
The cleartool protectvob command does not work for VOBs stored on a NAS device. The protectvob command incorrectly determines that the pools are remote when in fact the entire VOB storage directory is on the NAS. Today, there is no correctly documented way to change ownership for VOBs where the VOB storage is on a NAS device and the CPU for the VOB server is some other processor/ computer. The white paper on the IBM web site is incorrect, in that it gives directions for updating the ownership of VOB storage pools. It does not explain, for example, that set user ID and set group ID bits need to be set for the uid and gid files under the .security directory.
