Hi Maybe the temp list file - fill the FS that they build on.
Try to monitor the FS where the temp filelist is created.

Sent by: gpfsug-discuss-boun...@spectrumscale.org Hey Marc, I?m having some issues where a simple ILM list policy never completes, but I have yet to open a PMR or enable additional logging. But I was wondering if there are known reasons that this would not complete, such as when there is a symbolic link that creates a loop within the directory structure or something simple like that. Do you know of any cases like this, Marc, that I should try to find in my file systems? Thanks in advance! -Bryan From: gpfsug-discuss-boun...@spectrumscale.org [ mailto:gpfsug-discuss-boun...@spectrumscale.org] On Behalf Of Marc A Kaplan Sent: Wednesday, April 19, 2017 9:37 AM To: gpfsug main discussion list <gpfsug-discuss@spectrumscale.org> Subject: Re: [gpfsug-discuss] mmapplypolicy didn't migrate everything it should have - why not? Well I'm glad we followed Mr. S. Holmes dictum which I'll paraphrase... eliminate the impossible and what remains, even if it seems improbable, must hold. BTW - you may want to look at mmclone. Personally, I find the doc and terminology confusing, but mmclone was designed to efficiently store copies and near-copies of large (virtual machine) images. Uses copy-on-write strategy, similar to GPFS snapshots, but at a file by file granularity. BBTW - we fixed directories - they can now be huge (up to about 2^30 files) and automagically, efficiently grow and shrink in size. Also small directories can be stored efficiently in the inode. The last major improvement was just a few years ago. Before that they could be huge, but would never shrink.
