Policy engine can use xattrs using something like "WHERE
xattr('user.xattrname') LIKE 'value'".I don't currently have any TCT systems available to check, but are there no xattrs you could use a xattr like above to figure out which pool it's in? Use f.ex. "mmlsattr -L -d filename" to check which xattrs are set for a given file. -jf On Tue, Dec 23, 2025 at 11:19 AM Paul Ward <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > has anyone written external helper apps for the ILM policy engine. > > we are running TCT, planning to move files from on-premise COS to AWS, but > I need to detect which cloudpool the files are currently in. > The policy engine doesn’t appear to be able to access the extended file > attributes indicating which cloudpool a migrated file is in. > So I am trying to use an external helper script, but execution of the > policy seems to stall at the point it should use the helper script. > > I will also need to use a help app to move the files from COS to AWS as > the mmcloudgateway CLI will recall then migrate, but the policy engine > detects the files are already migrated so refuses to ‘migrate’ them again. > I plan to call the CLI version > > Any advice? > > > > Kindest regards, > > Paul > > > > Paul Ward > > TS Infrastructure Architect > > Natural History Museum > > T: 02079426450 > > E: [email protected] > > > _______________________________________________ > gpfsug-discuss mailing list > gpfsug-discuss at gpfsug.org > http://gpfsug.org/mailman/listinfo/gpfsug-discuss_gpfsug.org >
