Re: [gpfsug-discuss] Bit of a rant about snapshot command syntax changes

2016-09-16 Thread Sobey, Richard A
Thanks Marc.

Regrettably in this case, the only way I knew to delete a snapshot (listed 
below) has broken going from 3.5 to 4.2.1. Creating snaps has suffered the same 
fate.

I think at least the most popular old forms still work, even if the 
documentation and usage messages were scrubbed.
So generally, for example, neither your scripts nor your fingers will break. ;-)

Why was mmdelsnapshot (and possibly other snapshot related commands) changed 
from:

Mmdelsnapshot device snapshotname –j filesetname

TO

Mmdelsnapshot device filesetname:snapshotname

..between 4.2.0 and 4.2.1?

It’s mildly irritating to say the least!
