Hello,
We are in the process of installing IBM Ported Tool. To be
on safe side we changed DDDEF from * to /Service* and mounted root
file system on this.
This installation process create couple of sub directory
like SSH under /etc and RUN directory under /var. But these sub
directory ( RUN and SSH) were already existing under ( /VAR and /ETC).
So we wanted to delete it . But when I tried using ISHELL
and checking the structure of /etc , I got surprised and seen below result.
Symbolic Link Attributes
Pathname : /etc
External link . . : 0
File size . . . . : 12
File owner . . . . : STCUSER(0)

* $SYSNAME/etc

In this it has created the symbolic link for /etc and incorporated
$SYSNAME before that. I am not sure how system did it .
The same when I see directory structure of /etc/ssh

select an

It has incorporated /SYSTEM before /etc/ssh automatically.
Also when I try to see*/Service/etc/ssh* path, System open below detail

Because of automatic symbolic link creation, we are not able to delete
ssh and run directory under /etc and /var.
Can you please help me, what are changes I have to make to complete my
process, so that I can delete my ssh and run sub directory.
Regards
Saurabh
