1.7.2: cp fails - skipping file as it was replaced while being copied

[Shailo Sanyal]

Hi Eric,

Here's the getVolInfo output on /cygdrive/h:
------------------------------------------
ssanyal@I4846-vm ~
$ /usr/lib/csih/getVolInfo /cygdrive/h
Device Type        : 7
Characteristics    : 10
Volume Name        : <it_home>
Serial Number      : 318955787
Max Filenamelength : 255
Filesystemname     : <NTFS>
Flags              : 4004f
   FILE_CASE_SENSITIVE_SEARCH  : TRUE
   FILE_CASE_PRESERVED_NAMES   : TRUE
   FILE_UNICODE_ON_DISK        : TRUE
   FILE_PERSISTENT_ACLS        : TRUE
   FILE_FILE_COMPRESSION       : FALSE
   FILE_VOLUME_QUOTAS          : FALSE
   FILE_SUPPORTS_SPARSE_FILES  : TRUE
   FILE_SUPPORTS_REPARSE_POINTS: FALSE

   FILE_VOLUME_IS_COMPRESSED   : FALSE
   FILE_SUPPORTS_OBJECT_IDS    : FALSE
   FILE_SUPPORTS_ENCRYPTION    : FALSE

   FILE_READ_ONLY_VOLUME       : FALSE
   FILE_SEQUENTIAL_WRITE_ONCE  : FALSE
   FILE_SUPPORTS_TRANSACTIONS  : FALSE
  ------------------------------------------

If it is any help, we have another NetApp share (which seems to be setup 
a little different than /cygdrive/h) that does not exhibit the same symptom:
------------------------------------------
ssanyal@I4846-vm ~
$ /usr/lib/csih/getVolInfo /cygdrive/z
Device Type        : 7
Characteristics    : 10
Volume Name        : <pdist7>
Serial Number      : 50415496
Max Filenamelength : 255
Filesystemname     : <FAT>
Flags              : 40007
   FILE_CASE_SENSITIVE_SEARCH  : TRUE
   FILE_CASE_PRESERVED_NAMES   : TRUE
   FILE_UNICODE_ON_DISK        : TRUE
   FILE_PERSISTENT_ACLS        : FALSE
   FILE_FILE_COMPRESSION       : FALSE
   FILE_VOLUME_QUOTAS          : FALSE
   FILE_SUPPORTS_SPARSE_FILES  : FALSE
   FILE_SUPPORTS_REPARSE_POINTS: FALSE
   FILE_SUPPORTS_REMOTE_STORAGE: FALSE
   FILE_VOLUME_IS_COMPRESSED   : FALSE
   FILE_SUPPORTS_OBJECT_IDS    : FALSE
   FILE_SUPPORTS_ENCRYPTION    : FALSE
   FILE_NAMED_STREAMS          : TRUE
   FILE_READ_ONLY_VOLUME       : FALSE
   FILE_SEQUENTIAL_WRITE_ONCE  : FALSE
   FILE_SUPPORTS_TRANSACTIONS  : FALSE
------------------------------------------

I can copy files from /cygdrive/z and the inode does not change in the 
"ls -li" output.

Let me know if you need any other information. Thanks for looking into this!

Shailo

We need more details about that drive.  Please include the output of
/usr/lib/scih/getVolInfo /cygdrive/h.

The issue is only fixed for buggy drives that we know about.  It's
amazing how many variants of buggy drives are out there that we don't
know about.
