Error description

  • Errors are logged when using dp:do-restore() to import
    configuration on a RAID equipped DataPower appliance.
    
    "Can not create directory 'local:///harddisk' - Duplicate file
    name"
    "=== Line 2: mkdir "local:///harddisk""
    
    Despite the error messages, the configuration import completes
    successfully.
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • Multiple "Can not create directory" error messages may be logged
    when importing a configuration into a RAID equipped device, if
    the configuration contains files from a RAID device.
    This occurs because dp:do-restore() tries to recreate the
    directories.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The "Can not create directory" error message will no longer be
    issued.  The fix is available in 3.8.1.17, 3.8.2.8, 4.0.1.5 and
    4.0.2.1
