Specifying whether NFSv3 and NFSv4 clients display Windows ACL permissions based on minimum or maximum access

To specify that NFSv3 and NFSv4 clients should display Windows ACL permissions (not UNIX or NFSv4 ACL permissions) based on the minimum access granted by the Windows ACL, you can set the nfs.ntacl_display_permissive_perms option to on. Otherwise, you can set the option to off. By default, this option is off.

About this task

In versions of Data ONTAP earlier than 7.2.1, the permissions displayed to NFSv3 and NFSv4 clients on files were based on the maximum access granted by the Windows ACL. However, starting in Data ONTAP 7.2.1, the permissions displayed to NFSv3 and NFSv4 clients on files are based on the minimum access granted by the Windows ACL to any user.

Step

  1. Enter the following command: options nfs.ntacl_display_permissive_perms {on | off}
