i execuated the mkelem * command through cleartool command prompt but when i run the same command through command promp (cleartool mkelem *) it shows error
Don't use mkelem for multiple elements: use clearfsimport, as mentioned in "Creating a new subdirectory structure in ClearCase?".
clearfsimport -preview -rec -nset c:\sourceDir\ChildDirectory5 m:\MyView\MyVob\ParentDirectory
If those files are already in a view, use as a destination another (dynamic) view (with the same config spec)
Any file from the first view that was already versioned will be left unmodified in the destination view.
But any file that was new (and untracked or private) in the first view will be added to source control in the destination view.
