[Rdo-list] Cinder Problem with Circular directory structure.

I created an Icehouse cluster that uses Cinder for object storage (using the NFS driver). I use an Isilon NL cluster and NFS mount to that. I'm getting these errors concerning "Circular Directory Structure" and I can't create volumes because of it. From the commands it looks like "snapshots" are supposed to be ignored but apparently they are not.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Richard
