Your directory is under a fileset with non-compliant iam mode. With 
fileset in that mode, it follows snapLock protocol - it disallows changing 
subdir to immutable, but allows changing subdir to mutable.

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

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!

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.

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