Interesting...I don't consider FSCHECK to be unsupported...HP maintains
it, fixes bugs, and logs bugs (at least 60 entries in HPSL!)
 
In short...if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck...
 
It's supported according to conventional user definitions.
Do not, repeat: DO NOT, accept closing a PICS call about FSCHECK
with "it's unsupported".

You did have a good reason for using it...checking the integrity of the
file system with a third-party neutral tool.  It was a good idea, no matter
*whose* defrag you use: LPS, Bradmark, or HP!
 
BTW, quick scanning of HPSL docs show no apparent reports of FSCHECK causing
*any* changes when "Ignore" is picked.
