Error description

• In Rational Synergy 7.2.1, performing a "ccm
  cfs|copy_to_file_system|wa_snapshot -p|-path path -r|-recurse
  project_spec" command on a project with a work area on UNIX that
  is link-based and whose subprojects are not relative to the
  parent project (i.e. they are absolute) will create the expected
  work area copies for the project and sub-projects. However,
  links to subprojects will point to the actual work area of the
  sub-project, not the copy of the sub-project's work area that is
  created by the command.
  
  Example:
  
  $ ccm copy_to_file_system -p /tmp/example -recurse
  toolkit-int_3.5:project:1
  
  $ ls -l /tmp/example
  drwxrwxr-x 13 ccm_root ccm_root 4096 Mar  7 10:00 toolkit
  drwxrwxr-x 13 ccm_root ccm_root 4096 Mar  7 10:00 editor
  drwxrwxr-x 13 ccm_root ccm_root 4096 Mar  7 10:00 calculator
  
  $ ls -l /tmp/example/toolkit
  ...
  lrwxrwxrwx  1 ccm_root ccm_root    55 Mar  7 10:00 editor ->
  /users/joeuser/ccm_wa/devdb/editor-int_3.5/editor
