Effects of changing an NTFS-only storage system to a multiprotocol storage system

Changing an NTFS-only storage system to a multiprotocol storage system has several effects.

These are the effects:

Existing ACLs and the security style of all current volumes and qtrees remain unchanged.

Note: Because the security style of the root volume remains ntfs after you change the storage system to multiprotocol, you might be denied access to the root volume when you connect from UNIX as root. You can gain access if the ACL for the root volume allows full control for the Windows user that maps to root. You can also gain access by setting the cifs.nfs_root_ignore_acl option to on.
