For any (like me) who didn't know (or missed prior notice, if
there was any):

In preparing for in-process update from MPE 5.5 to 6.5 EXP2
(going well so far;  PowerPatch + reactive patches PATCHIX
phase yet to go), noticed that VSTORE "FILES VERIFIED"
versus STORE "FILES STORED" were NOT the same:  STORE
sez it wrote *one* more file to tape than VSTORE sez it verified.
hmmm....  called HP....

Turns out it's a known problem.  SR 5003337162/JAGab20221.
STORE creates the file "/_HFSACCT/_HFSGRP/HFSMAP" on
STORE tape;  it is a directory file for all HFS files on the tape.
When STORE statistics are compiled, STORE includes this file
in the "files stored" total.  BUT:   VSTORE does NOT consider
/_HFSACCT/_HFSGRP/HFSMAP to be a "real" file;  and does
not include it in the "files verified" count....

SUMMARY:  It's a bug, IMO....
