Yeah but that uses snapshots, which is pretty heavy-weight for what I want to do, particularly given mmbackup seems to have a way of tracking deletes...

See the snapdiff section of the presentation at: http://files.gpfsug.org/presentations/2016/south-bank/ArcaPix_GPFS_Spectrum_Scale_Python_API_final_17052016.pdf We can track creations, modifications, deletions and moves (from, to) for files and directories between one point in time and another. The selections can be returned via a manner of your choice. If anyone wants to know more, hit me up directly. Incidentally - I will be at BVE this week (http://www.bvexpo.com/) showing new things driven by the Python API and GPFS - so if anyone is in the area and wants to chat about technicals in person rather than on mail, drop me a line and we can sort that out.

I'm assuming that we can't easily use a policy scan as they files are no longer in the file-system unless we do some sort of diff? I'm assuming there must be a way of doing this as mmbackup must track deleted files to notify TSM of expired objects. Basically I want a list of new files, changed files and deleted files since a certain time. I'm assuming the first two will be relatively simple with a policyscan, but the latter I'm not sure about.
