016 * <p>
017 * A proxy for a ClearCase VOB replica.
018 * </p>
019 * <p>
020 * If Rational ClearCase MultiSite is not used, each VOB has a single set 
021 * of data containers and a single database. With MultiSite, some or all 
022 * VOBs are replicated. A replicated VOB is located at multiple sites; 
023 * at each site is a copy of the VOB, called a VOB replica. Collectively, 
024 * the set of replicas of a VOB is called a VOB family. Each replica includes 
025 * a full set of data containers and a complete copy of the VOB database. 
026 * At its site, a replica appears to be a regular VOB; developers can check out, 
027 * edit, and check in; build software; attach metadata annotations to objects; and so on.
028 * </p>
029 * <p>
030 * See the Rational ClearCase MultiSite Administrators Guide for information
031 * regarding replicas and MultiSite.
