Answers to: copying a file on a jfs filesystem, does not follow acl guidelineshttp://linuxexchange.org/questions/3190/copying-a-file-on-a-jfs-filesystem-does-not-follow-acl-guidelines<p>Hi everyone, I have a jfs filesystem</p> <pre><code>/dev/md2 on /mnt/hd2 type jfs (rw) </code></pre> <p>to which i am trying to copy some folders into target folder <code>/mnt/hd2/videos/movies/</code>.</p> <p>note: I am actually not using this target folder directly, but a symbolic link in my home folder that points to the target folder.</p> <p>Now, the folder <code>/mnt/hd2/videos/movies/</code> has default group acl enabled:</p> <pre><code>nass@stargaze:/mnt/hd2/videos$ getfacl Movies/ # file: Movies/ # owner: nass # group: shares # flags: -s- user::rwx group::rwx other::r-x default:user::rwx default:group::rwx default:group:shares:rwx default:mask::rwx default:other::r-x </code></pre> <p>I copied the folders from a temporary folder and expected to get the group write permission to be set as well, instead the folder looks like this:</p> <pre><code>drwxr-sr-x+ 2 nass shares 24 Aug 6 01:12 The_Movie/ </code></pre> <p>I had set acls on the "videos" folder initially, and all the subfolders have inherited the default from that top folder. What have I missed?</p>enFri, 20 Jan 2017 21:36:29 -0000
