Thanks Mathieu. There are only two "public" symbol links in controversy:
1) /var/adm/perfmgr -> /var/perf/pm/
HMC/FSM/ESA services use it to find PMLinux data file for transmission.
2) /var/perf/pm -> /opt/ibm/pm/
PMLinux refers it to regain original files layout (virtual ) against Ubuntu
FHS enforcement.
Other three links involved are local (or "private"), and product owner should
have flexibility to do so:
/opt/ibm/pm/tmp -> /var/opt/ibm/pm/tmp/
/opt/ibm/pm/daily -> /var/opt/ibm/pm/daily/
/opt/ibm/pm/config -> /etc/opt/ibm/pm/
As you can see here, FHS compliance only has negative impact on PMLinux
and makes simple files layout complicated. There is no evident advantage
for installing PMLinux under /opt/ibm/pm than in /var/perf/pm.
