Description (last modified by desai) (diff)
There seems to be a bug in the directory analysis. Here's two examples:
[[email protected]:/fc/gpfs-2.3.0-10]$ /usr/sbin/bcfg2 -q -n ... Redhat[dryrun]: Entries to update: ... Redhat[dryrun]: Directory: /disks/gpfs1 ... [[email protected]:/fc/gpfs-2.3.0-10]$ ls -ld /disks/ drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Dec 5 16:08 /disks/ [[email protected]:/fc/gpfs-2.3.0-10]$ ls -ld /disks/gpfs1/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 16384 Dec 5 16:10 /disks/gpfs1/
And here's one more:
[[email protected]:/var/db/bcfg]$ sudo /usr/sbin/bcfg2 -q -n ... Redhat[dryrun]: Directory: /var/www/localhost/cgi-bin Redhat[dryrun]: Directory: /var/www/localhost/htdocs ... [[email protected]:/var/db/bcfg]$ ls -ld /var drwxr-xr-x 22 root root 4096 Jan 16 15:01 /var/ [[email protected]:/var/db/bcfg]$ ls -ld /var/www lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Jan 16 15:01 /var/www -> /disks/space0/www/ [[email protected]:/var/db/bcfg]$ ls -ld /disks/space0/www drwxr-xr-x 15 root root 4096 Jan 19 08:07 /disks/space0/www/ [[email protected]:/var/db/bcfg]$ ls -ld /disks/space0/www/localhost drwxr-xr-x 14 root root 4096 Jan 31 08:29 /disks/space0/www/localhost/ [[email protected]:/var/db/bcfg]$ ls -ld /disks/space0/www/localhost/htdocs drwxrwxr-x 11 root admins 4096 Jan 25 22:59 /disks/space0/www/localhost/htdocs/ [[email protected]:/var/db/bcfg]$ ls -ld /disks/space0/www/localhost/cgi-bin drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jan 20 14:22 /disks/space0/www/localhost/cgi-bin/
The last one actually causes problems because it creates /var/www/localhost but removes the /var/www symlink to make it an actual directory which ain't good.

The GPFS directory was caused by inconsistent permissions in the bundle and the filesystem, so that was a false alarm. I'm still not sure of the /var/www/localhost one though.

Can you try running this with a -d (to get operation debugging information)

- Status changed from assigned to closed
- Resolution set to fixed
We have tracked this to a bug in config file installation. If a component of a parent path was a symlink, it would get clobbered. This is fixed in [6b7fe3dffd69efeeeabbce0bcd6cab97bde94cef] (SVN r1743)
