Did you do a "mv" somewhere in there? Or just forget to paste it?
I'm still biased to think it's probably fine. Although Jonathan had one test which produced a bad result, the assumption was that it would have been good. And given that Adam had a good result, it's probably just something weird and specific to something that Jonathan unfortunately has right now ... Still, Tom, there's no harm in actually doing the test, if you'd care to repeat it or paste it or whatever. Cuz it's not shown below. > -----Original Message----- > From: Tom Limoncelli [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Friday, April 23, 2010 5:08 PM > To: Adam Levin > Cc: Edward Ned Harvey; [email protected] > Subject: Re: [lopsa-tech] Anybody with a netapp? > > t...@goodfor:~$ mkdir tmp/snaptest > t...@goodfor:~$ cd tmp/snaptest/ > t...@goodfor:~/tmp/snaptest$ mkdir http_root > t...@goodfor:~/tmp/snaptest$ mkdir http_root/current > t...@goodfor:~/tmp/snaptest$ mkdir http_root/current/bin > t...@goodfor:~/tmp/snaptest$ echo "stable" > > http_root/current/bin/myapp > t...@goodfor:~/tmp/snaptest$ mkdir http_root/experimental > t...@goodfor:~/tmp/snaptest$ mkdir http_root/experimental/bin > t...@goodfor:~/tmp/snaptest$ echo "unstable" > > http_root/experimental/bin/myapp > > t...@goodfor:~/tmp/snaptest$ find .snapshot/hourly.0 > .snapshot/hourly.0 > .snapshot/hourly.0/http_root > .snapshot/hourly.0/http_root/current > .snapshot/hourly.0/http_root/current/bin > .snapshot/hourly.0/http_root/current/bin/myapp > .snapshot/hourly.0/http_root/experimental > .snapshot/hourly.0/http_root/experimental/bin > .snapshot/hourly.0/http_root/experimental/bin/myapp > > (OH NO!
