Error description
When enabling eventlogging of FILEEXIT or FILETEXTEXIT on Windows 2008, events may not be immediate flushed to the output file. This issue may happen only on Windows 2008 or later because flush behavior was changed from Windows 2008. No events were lost, but changes of files size of the output file cannot be detected till the data is flushed to the disk. Tivoli Storage Manager Versions affected: Tivoli Storage Manager Server 6.1 or later versions on Windows 2008 platform only Additional Keywords: None Additional L2 info: This issue happens because the specific option "c" is required to be specified in mode parameter when opening file by fopen function so that the contents of the file buffer are written directly to disk if either fflush or _flushall is called. For more detail information about fopen and fflush in MSDN, please read the following URLs: - fopen: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/yeby3zcb%28v=vs.80%29.as px - fflush: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/9yky46tz%28v=vs.71%29.as px Initial Impact: Low
