1613371 : Zugriffsrechte für ein neues Gruppenverzeichnis in GPFS¶
Created: 2026-06-30T12:10:06Z - current status: new¶
Summary:
A new group directory ("mcs") was created via Amfora without the ability to set Access Control Lists (ACLs). The current ownership is set to af-m, but it should be changed to the corresponding group (mcs). Additionally, permissions need adjustment to allow others read/execute access (o+rx), while subdirectories can be secured by the group as needed. There’s also a question about why another directory (mls) has non-root ownership.
Anonymized & Cleaned Request:
- A user reports creating a new group directory ([GROUP_NAME]) in Amfora but could not configure ACLs during creation.
- Current state:
bash
drwxrwx---. 2 root [CURRENT_GROUP] ... [GROUP_DIR]
- Desired changes:
1. Change group ownership from [CURRENT_GROUP] to [NEW_GROUP] for [GROUP_DIR].
2. Apply o+rx permissions to [GROUP_DIR].
3. Clarify why another directory ([OTHER_DIR]) is owned by a non-root user.
Suggested Solution/Next Steps:
1. Change Group Ownership:
Run:
bash
sudo chgrp [NEW_GROUP] /path/to/[GROUP_DIR]
-
Adjust Permissions: Add other-read/execute:
bash sudo chmod o+rx /path/to/[GROUP_DIR] -
Amfora Enhancement: Log a feature request with the Amfora team to enable ACL/group membership configuration during directory creation.
-
Ownership Question: Investigate historical reasons for
[OTHER_DIR]’s ownership (check audit logs or consult admins).
Note: Replace placeholders like [GROUP_NAME], [CURRENT_GROUP], etc., with actual values when executing commands.
