[Anthill-pro] RE: AHP and NAS

[Varban]

Curtis, this is the description of the createFileExclusively method:
 Create a new empty file with the given pathname. Return |true| if the 
file was created and |false| if a file or directory with the given 
pathname already exists. Throw an IOException if an I/O error occurs.

Can you send us the full stack trace where you see the IOException? Also 
check if your NAS storage is mounted with asynchronous access - I wonder 
if there is a problem when we try to access a file right after it is 
created (it looks like the job/step logs in this case). Also as a sanity 
check I would try to execute a simple job that just attempts to create a 
file on the NAS without any changelogs or anything and see if that works...

Regards,
Varban
