Hi Avid brain-trust,
I have a user running on a 3rd-party filesystem that emulates Unity to permit bin locking & shared MC workflow on commodity SAN storage.
A recent update to the filesystem resulted in some bin and project files intermittently disappearing from the virtual filesystem (but still present, just not visible through Finder). The filesystem vendor is investigating but says another customer with the same issue was able to circumvent by removing extended attributes from all files in the workspace.
A quick look shows a bunch of bin files in the workspace have an attribute called BIN_GUID. I'm wondering if anyone knows if that's an Avid-specific extended attribute, or for that matter whether Avid uses any extended attributes at all? I really don't care to break the project in the search for a workaround.
Thanks in advance for any insight.
