Issue

When using the separate section for archive log deletion on an NFSv3.0 mountpoint with a recursive setting,
SCF will attempt to delete files under .snapshot/<snapshot-name>/... directories, which is not possible due to these being read-only:
 
ERROR: [<AGENT-HOST>:9090 (4.3.0.0)] (<DATE/TIME>) Could not delete Archive Log /<MOUNTPOINT>/.snapshot/<SNAPSHOT_NAME>/<PATH-TO-OLD-LOG-FILE>: Read-only file system
 
Followed by "SCF-00061: Archive log deletion failed with error" with the same error again.
 
Configured are:
ARCHIVE_LOG_RECURSIVE_SEARCH=Y
ARCHIVE_LOG_DIR=/<MOUNTPOINT>
ARCHIVE_LOG_EXT=LOG
ARCHIVE_LOG_ENABLE=Y
ARCHIVE_LOG_RETENTION=<FLOATING_POINT_NUMBER_LARGER_THAN_ZERO>
