IC90934: HSM FOR WINDOWS DOES NOT HONOR SINGLE FILES AT MIGRATION WHEN INCLUDED OR EXCLUDED USING THE BROWSE DIALOG IN GUI

IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) Client 6.3.2 Downloads and READMEs

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• HSM for Windows GUI provides several migration candidate
  filtering options. When the user wants to include or exclude a
  single file in a directory specified for migration, he has the
  opportunity to select the file using a file browse dialog. The
  dialog appends a trailing backslash to the selected file and
  therefore HSM for Windows does not recognize the file.
  The problem has been introduced with APAR IC85215 in PTF 6.3.1
  and with APAR IC85150 in Interim fix 6.1.5.1.
  
  Affected Products:
  Tivoli Storage Manager HSM for Windows versions
  6.1.5.1, 6.3.1.0, 6.4.0.0
  
  Customer/L2 diagnostics (if applicable): After closing the file
  browse dialog, the parent dialog shows the path of the file in a
  single line edit box.
  
  Additional Keywords: HSM for Windows
  

Local fix

• After closing the file browse dialog, the trailing backslash can
  be removed in the parent dialog single line edit box, where the
  path name is presented to the user.
