Viewing Dtrees

This section describes how to view details of dtrees.

Context

Prerequisites

A namespace and a dtree have been created.

Procedure

  1. Choose Resources > Resources > Dtree.
  2. Select a desired account from the Account drop-down list in the upper left corner.
  3. In the namespace list on the left, select a namespace. Then, view its dtree information in the function pane on the right. Table 1 describes related parameters.

    Table 1 Dtree parameters

    Parameter

    Description

    Name

    Name of a dtree.

    Directory Name

    Directory name of a dtree.

    ID

    ID of a dtree.

    Security Style

    Security style of a dtree, including:

    • Mixed: applies to scenarios where users of CIFS clients (using the SMB protocol) and UNIX clients (using the NFS, HDFS, or DPC protocol) can access and control dtrees. In this style, CIFS permissions (NT ACLs) and UNIX permissions (UNIX mode bits, POSIX ACLs, or NFSv4 ACLs) cannot co-exist. Only the latest configured permissions on either CIFS or UNIX clients take effect.
    • Native: applies to the same scenarios as the Mixed style. The difference between the Native style and the Mixed style is that CIFS permissions (NT ACLs) and UNIX permissions (UNIX mode bits, POSIX ACLs, or NFSv4 ACLs) can co-exist and will neither affect nor synchronize with each other in Native style.
    • NTFS: applies to scenarios where Windows NT ACLs control users' permissions.
    • UNIX: applies to scenarios where UNIX mode bits, POSIX ACLs, or NFSv4 ACLs control users' permissions.
    NOTE:

    In Mixed style (which supports NT ACLs), if you configure an NT ACL for a file or directory on a Windows client and switch Mixed to UNIX, the NT ACL in Mixed style will become invalid.

    • Click the name of a desired dtree to view its general, quota, protocol, protection, and WORM information.
    • When the system is being upgraded, the WORM information of the dtree may be incorrectly displayed. Browse the information after the upgrade is complete.
