[gpfsug-discuss] GPFS+TSM+HSM: staging vs. migration priority

[Dominic Mueller-Wicke01]

Hi Jaime,

I received the same request from other customers as well.
could you please open a RFE for the theme and send me the RFE ID? I will
discuss it with the product management then. RFE Link:

Greetings, Dominic.

Interesting perspective Mark.

I'm inclined to think EBUSY would be more appropriate.

Quoting Marc A Kaplan <makaplan at us.ibm.com>:
