ERROR DESCRIPTION:
TSM client 3.7 and 4.1 ignore the subdir option.
.
With the subdir option specified an incremental backup should
backup the symbolic links, directories and files they point to
.
Recreate this issue: dsmc i -su=yes */lien_adsm/**
..In this case nothing is being backed up including the link.
LOCAL FIX:
PROBLEM SUMMARY:
****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED: UNIX client *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Command "dsmc inc" does not backup *
* anything, if the last directory in the *
* specified path is symbolic link, which *
* points to mount point. *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION: Apply the fix when available *
****************************************************************
PROBLEM CONCLUSION:
One routine returned incorrect value in case of symbolic
pointing to mount point. Source code was modified to return
correct value. Now command like "dsmc inc /some_path/sym_link/*"
works fine even if directory, that symbolic link points to, is a
mount point of a filesystem.
