Has anyone experienced and issue where you use a find command on a cifs share directory/folder and the output appears to start looping before it finishes?

I'm trying to perform a

find /journals/domain_bak -print

The results start scrolling but after a while it appears the files start displaying from the beginning again, scroll to a certain point and then restart again. The command then needs to be cancelled.

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. This is on AIX 6.1 TL6

Take a look at APAR IZ94016: SMB_FS DOES NOT DETERMINE END OF DIRECTORY LISTING AND LOOPS APPLIES TO AIX 6100-04:

You should update to AIX 6.1 TL4 SP9, in order to update bos.cifs_fs.rte to 6.1.4.4.

The same problem exists in AIX 6.1 TL5 and TL6. In these cases you must update to TL5 SP5 or TL6 SP5.

Excuse me, I read you were in AIX 6.1 TL4, not TL6.

For TL6 the APAR is IZ92164: SMB_FS DOES NOT DETERMINE END OF DIRECTORY LISTING AND LOOPS APPLIES TO AIX 6100-06:

Thank you for your response. I've applied but now I need to wait for an opportunity to reboot the system.
