This topic describes how to set up privileges and
permissions to enable clients to access UNIX filesets.
Prerequisites
You must have Administrator privileges to perform
this task.
Context
New
filesets are attached with a false user ID and group ID for security reasons.
Also root squashing (when a root or Administrator user logs into a
client that is not a privileged client) makes it seem as if the user has no
access.
Steps
- Set the privileged client list.
sfscli> chclusterconfig -privclient client_list
- Ensure that you are logged on to a client with administrator privileges.
- Change to the directory where the fileset is attached. This is
the directory given to the –path parameter when
the fileset was attached.
- Run the ls –l command to
verify that the user ID, the group ID, and the permissions are not valid.
- Issue the chown command at the client
prompt to change the owner of the directory.
- Issue the chgrp command at
the client prompt to change the group ID of the directory.
- Issue the chmod command at the client
prompt to change the permissions on the directory.
