Error description

• The IBM Storage Protect Server command query job reports the
  replication process as completed without any errors while the
  process itself is reported failed in the activity log. This
  occurs when replication for some of the objects fails due to
  insufficient space on the target causing the replication process
  to fail, and at the same time any other
  
  replication process completes with WARNING because some of the
  files are skipped.
  
  Example:
  
  On Source Server, the following messages are reported in the
  activity log during a replication process:
  
  ANR3824W Replication skipped one or more files for node....
  ANR3824W Replication skipped one or more files for node....
  ANR2840W Replication skipped files updated after replication
  started.
  
  With a few files skipped, the replication job status is set to
  WARNING.
  
  Later, the following error message is reported :
  
  ANR0206E  process XXXX failed due to insufficient space in
  destination storage pool.
  
  This error results in marking the replication job status as
  FAILED
  
  Due to this defect, the WARNING status that is due to skipped
  files is masking the FAILED status due to 'insufficient space
  
  in destination storage pool' error and causing the query job to
  report the replication status as "COMPLETED" instead of "FAILED"
