Problem
The find command on several Unix platforms has an option called maxdepth which can be used to limit the number of directories find will look into.
The Solaris find command does not include the maxdepth option and does not support the maxdepth option. This is a limitation of Solaris and not CCS.
Error
Query results lists all sub-directories. The find option as –prune or -maxdepth@sp1 did not change the results.
Cause
The Solaris find command does not include the maxdepth option and does not support the maxdepth option. This is a limitation of Solaris and not CCS.
Solution
unable to use maxdepth option to limit subdirectories to search in.
