Ah. So I can specify “device filesetname” OR “device -J junctionpath” (and 
mmchfileset gets the filesetname from that).

Ultimately though I cannot change the mount point of the fileset without 
mmunlink / mmlink, right?

Thanks
Richard

-J is to define which fileset you are talking about.
The alternative is give the fileset name straight after the ‘device’ argument.

Once the fileset is unambiguous, you then use other command line option to 
change things
e.g. -j to change the *name* of this fileset.
-j doesn’t change the mount point, and indeed mmcrfileset doesn’t set the mount 
point either.

Hi all,

Attempting to change the junction path of a fileset and I’m getting some 
strange output. It may just not be possible but the documentation on 
mmchfileset itself doesn’t make it clear.

mmchfileset gpfs filesetname -J /gpfs/new_path
mmchfileset: Options -J and FilesetName cannot be specified at the same time.

Which leads to what’s the point of the following command as the error suggests 
it will work:

mmchfileset device -J /gpfs/new_path

…as not specifying a FilesetName to the input of mmchfileset seems odd.

I do of course know that I can just unlink and relink but hey.. trying to save 
a few precious seconds 😊

Cheers
Richard
