[gpfsug-discuss] [EXTERNAL] Re: Policy scan of symbolic links with contents?

[Oesterlin, Robert]

RULE finddangling LIST dangle SHOW(PATH_NAME) WHERE MISC_ATTRIBUTES='L'
AND SUBSTR(PATH_NAME,0,4)='/fs1/'

In this case PATH_NAME is the path within the GPFS file system, not the target of the link, correct? That's not what I want. I want the path of the *link target*.

    Does that check the target of the symlink, or the path to the link itself? I think the OP was checking the target (or I misunderstood).
