This section describes how to modify the security style of a dtree.
Prerequisites
A namespace and a dtree have been created.
Procedure
- Log in to DeviceManager and choose Resources > Resources > Dtree.
- Select a desired account from the Account drop-down list in the upper left corner.
- Select an owning namespace, click More on the right of a desired dtree, and select Modify.
The Modify Dtree page is displayed.
- Select a security style based on service requirements. Possible options are:
- Mixed: applies to the scenario where users of CIFS clients (using SMB) and UNIX clients (using NFS/HDFS/DPC) can access and control dtrees. In this style, the permissions are subject to the last permissions set for CIFS clients or UNIX clients. CIFS permissions (NT ACL) and UNIX permissions (UNIX Mode/POSIX ACL/NFSv4 ACL) do not coexist.
- UNIX: applies to the scenario where UNIX mode bits, POSIX ACLs, or NFSv4 ACLs control user permissions.
In Mixed style (which supports NT ACLs), if you have configured an NT ACL for a file or directory on a Windows client and switched Mixed to UNIX, the NT ACL in Mixed style will become invalid.
- Click OK.
