Error description

• In a situation formula for the File Information attribute group,
  with ( PATH=xxxx AND SCAN FILE=yyyy ),the Unix OS agent does
  not return the list of files in PATH and the situation does not
  work.
  On the contrary, the list is returned as expected if the
  predicates are exchanged as in the following:
  (SCAN FILE=yyyy AND PATH=xxxx).
  The agent must behave in the same way independently of the
  order.
