The config spec is stored at the view storage directory:

An individual view's config spec is stored in its view storage directory, in two forms:

  • Source format. The user-visible version, config_spec, contains only the series of config spec rules.
  • Compiled format. A modified version, .compiled_spec, includes accounting information. This version is created and used by the view_server process.

Even if the server is offline, you can still try and access the \\shared\view\storage\myView.vws path associated to your view and read the config_spec file.

If the network is done though, and the view storage is not a local one (local to your host), then you would not be able to read it.

Check if cleartool catcs still work.
