A dynamic view in Clearcase should be able to access any arbitrary file or revision associated with the VOB via the MVFS extended path notation. So, even if you use a path name that does not exist in your working copy due to your current config spec, you should still be able to access deletefile@@/branch/5, for example. You should be able to test this out directly at the command line. The dynamic view on the server is just a vehicle to access the Clearcase database. It doesn't matter at all what state it is in. If you think this isn't true, then we need to understand why and evaluate other options.
