  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • TSM does not migrate files.
    
    AIX filesystem library libxdsm code returns filenames
    with
     extra characters in the end of the Filename which throws
     out HSM. So HSM stops migrating files.
    This can lead to 100% full filesystem.
    
    These file can not be migrated by TSM HSM thus
    the file system can get filled up to 100 %. -
    The mangled file names are written to a list  which is
    used by a HSM process.
    

Local fix

  • N/A
    

Problem summary

  • pathname returned by dm_handle_to_path is not
    NULL terminated, this causes HSM applications fail in migrating
    some files which leads to filesystem being full.
    

Problem conclusion

  • NULL terminate strings returned by  dm_handle_to_path.
    

Temporary fix
