Morning Ed, I'm not sure how useful this would be if you're wanting to hunt for bad file names, but in the past we've used the built in HEX function to convert problem strings to hex and have an external script convert it back into ASCII/Unicode (whatever it should be). That way all the intelli

Hello, The scale 5.0.4 documentation makes reference to a tctwatcher command, but I can't find the executable in any of the 5.0.4-3 RPMs I've deployed (including gpfs.tct.server, gpfs.tct.client, gpfs.kafka and gpfs.librdkafka). I'd wondered if it needed compiling from somewhere in /usr/lpp/mmf

Hello! A follow up to my previous question about automatically sending files to Amazon s3 as they arrive in GPFS. I have created an interface script to manage Amazon s3 storage as an external pool, I have created a migration policy that pre-migrates all files to the external pool and I have se
