[gpfsug-discuss] ACLs on AFM Filesets

[Luke Raimbach]

Hi Venkat,

This is only for the fileset root. All other files and directories pull the
correct ACLs as expected when accessing the fileset as root user, or after
setting the correct (missing) ACL on the fileset root.

Multiple SS versions from around 4.1 to present.

Thanks!
Luke.
