APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • getInode() resets pcacheCtlAttribute if pcache is not
    enabled. Pcache is not enabled for secondary mode
    filesets. Check for CTL attr only if the CTL attribute
    was already set in getInode(). pcacheCtlAttribute is set
    during the file open if the CTL attr is found in the
    inode.
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • AFM uses special control files to
    replicate ACLs, EAs and to check
    fileset mode at the home/secondary
    site. This special control file is not
    being recognized correctly thus affecting
    the EA and ACLs replication and fileset
    mode recognition.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Benefits of the solution:
    EAs and ALCs replicate correctly.
    Fileset mode recognized.
    
    Work around:
    None.
    
    Problem trigger:
    AFM and AFM DR replication.
    
    Symptom: Unexpected results.
    
    Platforms affected: All Linux OS environments.
    
    Functional Area affected: AFM and AFM DR.
    
    Customer Impact: HiPER
