Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: TPC 4.1.0 and 4.1.1 users who use            *
  *                 TPC Data Agents to scan GPFS file systems.   *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: TPC scan does not recognize correctly   *
  *                      a GPFS snapshot directory if it does    *
  *                      not have the default name               *
  *                      (".snapshots")                          *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *

Problem conclusion

• The command which finds the GPFS snapshot directory has been
  changed to:
  /usr/lpp/mmfs/bin/mmsnapdir `mount | grep \
  [[:space:]]<mount_dir>[[:space:]] | awk '{print $1}'` -q
  
  For example if the mount point
  is /gpfs the command will be:
  /usr/lpp/mmfs/bin/mmsnapdir `mount | grep \
  [[:space:]]/gpfs[[:space:]] | awk '{print $1}'` -q
  
  The fix for this APAR is targeted for the following
  maintenance packages:
  
  | fix pack | 4.1.1-TIV-TPC-FP0005 - target October 2010
  
  http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?&uid=swg21320822
  
  The target dates for future fix packs do not represent a formal
  commitment by IBM. The dates are subject to change without
  notice.
