Environment

Novell Filr 1.0.0
Novell Filr 1.0.1

Situation

If the Filr 'admin' user tries to delete a user workspace and chooses to purge all of it's contents (all of its folders, sub-folders and entries including source content if any folders or sub-folders are mirrored folders); this delete/purge operation may result in the user's Home folder getting deleted in the underlying file-system.

Resolution

A fix for this issue is available in the Filr 1.0.1 Hot Patch 1, available via the Novell Patch Finder. It is recommended that you apply this patch to your Filr 1.0.1 installation immediately.

Note: If you are still running Filr 1.0.0, please upgrade to Filr 1.0.1 first.
