The change that I noticed most was:

         Repair functionality of mmfsck command in online mode is deprecated
             The repair functionality of mmfsck command in online mode is no 
longer available. The report-only operation still works in the online mode.

While I know that mmfsck is rarely needed and has gotten much faster, 
deprecating the ability to do any online repairs seems
like a significant regression.


I would concur with that sentiment, and given it is a significant regression I would suggest that it IBM should give an explanation as to why functionality has been removed.

Been able to do online repairs on large file systems is when you need it a complete life saver. It could be the difference between several days of outage vs. end users not realizing there was even a problem.
