Thanks, I couldn’t recreate that test:

# mkdir "it/stu'pid name"

mkdir: cannot create directory ‘it/stu'pid name’: No such file or directory

[Removing the / ]

# mkdir "itstu'pid name"

# mmchattr -i yes itstu\'pid\ name/

itstu'pid name/: Change immutable flag failed: Invalid argument.

Can not set directory to be immutable or appendOnly under current fileset mode!

Which begs the question, how do I have an immutable folder!

Kindest regards,

Paul

While the apostrophe is evil it's not the problem:

root@it-gti-02 test1]# mkdir "it/stu'pid name"
[root@it-gti-02 test1]# mmchattr -i yes it/stu\'pid\ name
[root@it-gti-02 test1]# mmchattr -i no it/stu\'pid\ name

Its not a fileset, its just a folder, well a subfolder…

[filesystem/[fileset]/share/data/iac/[user] 2004-2014/Laboratory Impact experiments/LGG shots/Kent LGG/Kent aerogel LGG shots/Lizardite in aerogel/Nick Foster's sample

It’s the “Nick Foster's sample” folder I want to delete, but it says it is immutable and I can’t disable that.

I suspect it’s the apostrophe confusing things.

Kindest regards,

Paul

Scale disallows deleting fileset junction using rmdir, so I suggested mmunlinkfileset.
