I have created a symbolic link for folder1 to make it available in vob2\rootdir from vob1\rootdir.
And I labeled the whole directory folder1 recursively in vob1.
But when I modified the configspec of dynamic view to load folder1, it was loaded under vob1; But I couldn't see that folder in vob2\rootdir. Pls help.

First you don't modify a config spec to load anything in a dynamic view: you only modify selection rules, there is no load rules (as opposed to snapshot view).

If you were actually using a snapshot view (with a path different from M:\ or /views), then beware of symlink resolution issue like this one.

Finally, if your config spec doesn't select vob2/rootdir, or if it doesn't select the version which recorded the symlink, you wouldn't be able to see said symlink.
That means, labelling vob1/folder1 isn't enough: you need to make sure that:

  • /vob2 is labelled
  • /vobs2/rootdir is labelled as well

In other words, the parent folders of your final selection target (target being '/vobs/rootdir/folder1) must be selected.
