Managing and Repairing Fileset Catalog Files
The LastError value reported (9) indicates that confusion exists over the state of
the mount point. In this example, the LastError value is the same as the OSS
Monitor error message number (E0009).
Managing and Repairing Fileset Catalog Files
An OSS name server maintains a catalog file for each fileset it manages. These
catalog files require maintenance when:
•
New OSS features require changes to the format of entries in the catalog. This
maintenance is described in Upgrading OSS Catalog Files on page 5-40.
•
Old catalog files need to be moved or removed as part of fileset management. This
maintenance is described in Moving and Removing OSS Catalog Files on
page 5-41.
Upgrading OSS Catalog Files
In most cases, a fileset created while your site used a previous version of Open
System Services can be used unmodified with the current software. Version 1 fileset
catalog files are not supported on systems running G06.29 and later G-series RVUs.
Your Version 1 fileset catalog files should have been automatically upgraded to
Version 2 when you installed the T8622G10 version of the OSS Monitor and started it
for the first time. If your fileset catalog files were not upgraded at that time, upgrade
them as soon as possible.
Filesets with catalog files that are not upgraded to the current RVU cannot support
OSS features available in the current RVU but not available when the fileset was
created or last upgraded. For example:
•
A fileset created on a system running a D3x RVU (a Version 1 catalog fileset)
cannot contain symbolic links until its catalog file is upgraded to a Version 2 or a
Version 3 catalog fileset. (Version 3 filesets are supported on systems running
G06.29 or later G-series RVUs only.)
•
A fileset created on a system running a D4x RVU or a G-series RVU before
G06.29 cannot contain access control lists (ACLs) until its catalog file is upgraded
to a Version 3 catalog fileset. Version 3 filesets are supported on systems running
G06.29 or later G-series RVUs only. New filesets created on systems running
G06.29 and later G-series RVUs are created as Version 3 filesets.
To upgrade a fileset catalog file:
1. Determine whether the fileset is mounted by using the SCF STATUS FILESET
Command.
2. If the fileset is mounted, stop the fileset by using the procedure described under
Stopping (Unmounting) a Fileset on page 5-13.
3. Enter the following SCF command for the fileset:
