When a pwd or getwd command is run on
an automounted file system, often the /tmp_mnt prefix
is added to the path. Among programs running on machines with the
same file system automounted, the paths are recognized. However, if
that same path is passed to a program on a machine on which the file
system is not automounted, the program cannot recognize the path.
Rational® Synergy solves
this problem by stripping the /tmp_mnt prefix from
automounted file systems paths. Rational Synergy
also strips any prefix set using the AUTOMOUNT_FIX environment
variable.
