[gpfsug-discuss] CES permissions

Hi

we have an existing configuration with a home - cache relationship on
linked clusters, we are running CES on the cache cluster.

When data is copied to an SMB share the the afm target for the cache is
marked dirty and the replication back to the home cluster stops.

both clusters are running 4.2.1

We have seen this behaviour whether the acls on the home cluster file
system are nfsv4 only or posix and nfsv4

the cache cluster is nfsv4 only so that we can use CES on it for SMB.

We are using uid remapping between the cache and the home

can anyone suggest why the cache is marked dirty and how we can get around
this issue

the other thing we would like to do is force group and posix file
permissions via samba but these are not supported options in the CES
installation of samba

any help is appreciated
