[gpfsug-discuss] mmapplypolicy oddity

[Oesterlin, Robert]

I have a policy scan that walks a fileset and creates a report.  In some cases, the SHOW output doesn’t happen and I have no idea why. Here is a case in point. Both lines are the same sym-link, the “.bad” one fails to output the  information. Ideas on how to debug this?

<1> /gpfs/fs1/some-path /liblinear.bad     [2019-08-05 at 22:19:23 6233 100 50 system 2020-06-18 at 13:36:36 64 nlu] RULE 'dumpall' LIST 'nlu' DIRECTORIES_PLUS WEIGHT(inf)

<5> /gpfs/fs1/some-path /liblinear [2020-06-18 at 13:39:40 6233 100 50 system 2020-06-18 at 13:39:40 0 nlu] RULE 'dumpall' LIST 'nlu' DIRECTORIES_PLUS WEIGHT(inf) SHOW( |6233|100|lrwxrwxrwx|50|0|1|1592487581 |1592487581 |1592487581 |L|)

In that directory:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 build users    50 Jun 18 09:39 liblinear -> ../../path1/UIMA/liblinear      <- A new one I created that identical
lrwxrwxrwx 1 build users    50 Aug  5  2019 liblinear.bad -> ../../path1/UIMA/liblinear    <- the original one that fails

The list rule looks  like this:

      rule 'dumpall' list '"$fileset_name"' DIRECTORIES_PLUS
      SHOW(                                      '|' ||
            varchar(user_id)                  || '|' ||
            varchar(group_id)                 || '|' ||
            char(mode)                        || '|' ||
            varchar(file_size)                || '|' ||
            varchar(kb_allocated)             || '|' ||
            varchar(nlink)                    || '|' ||
            unixTS(access_time,19)            || '|' ||
            unixTS(modification_time)         || '|' ||
            unixTS(creation_time)             || '|' ||
            char(misc_attributes,1)           || '|'
      )
