Error description

• Headline:
  Lock obsolete a foundation baseline of a child stream results in
  all baselines on that stream not being displayed in the baseline
  browser.
  
  APAR Error Description:
  Abstract: If a component baseline that happens to be also a
  foundation baseline of a stream is locked-obsolete, then the
  component tree browser with the 'Show obsolete baselines'
  tick-box unset, hides not only that baseline, but also and
  incorrectly *all* the baselines of the stream of which the just
  locked-obsoleted baseline is the foundation baseline.
  
  Problem: Steps to reproduce:
  1. Open the Component tree browser of a component that has
  baselines in at least a stream
  2. In the Tools / Filtering Options.. pop-up window, make sure
  the 'Show obsolete baselines' tick-box is clear (not set)
  3. Lock obsolete the foundation baseline of the stream.
  4. Refresh the Component tree browser window
  5. The just locked-obsoleted baselines disappears from the
  window, but also *all* the non-locked-obsolete baselines of that
  stream and the stream itself do.
  
  WORKAROUND:
  - In the Component tree browser window there is no known
  workaround.
  - From command line, this was fixed with APAR IC42113, the
  'cleartool lsbl -tree' command correctly hides the
  locked-obsolete foundation baseline, and correctly lists the
  non-locked-obsolete following baselines on that stream.

  Lock obsolete a foundation baseline of a child stream
  results in all baselines on that stream not being displayed
  in the base. If a component baseline that happens to be also
  a foundation baseline of a stream is locked-obsolete, then
  the component tree browser with the "Show obsolete
  baselines" tick-box unset, hides not only that baseline, but
  also and incorrectly *all* the baselines of the stream of
  which the just locked-obsoleted baseline is the foundation
  baseline.
  

Problem conclusion

• A fix is available in ClearCase versions 7.1.2.8 and 8.0.0.4
