Just wanted to pass my GPFS RFE along:

*Description*:

GPFS File System Manager should provide the option to log all file and directory operations that occur in a file system, preferably stored in a TSD (Time Series Database) that could be quickly queried through an API interface and command line tools. ...


The rudimentaries for this already exist via the DMAPI interface in GPFS (used by the TSM HSM product). A while ago this was posted to the IBM GPFS DeveloperWorks forum:

Message:
We have a proof of concept which uses DMAPI to listens to and passively logs 
filesystem changes with a non blocking listener.  This log can be used to 
generate backup sets etc.  Unfortunately, a bug in the current DMAPI keeps this 
approach from working in the case of certain events.  I am told 3.4.0.3 may 
contain a fix.  We will gladly share the code once it is working.
