Some of the 'fun things' being such as that very issue.

Just a cautionary note, it doesn't work with symlinks as it fails to get the 
acl and so doesn't copy the symlink.

So you may want to run a traditional rsync after just to get all your symlinks 
on place. (having been using this over the Christmas period to merge some 
filesets with acls...)

Great guys!!!
Just what I was looking for.
Everyone is always so helpful on this forum.
Thanks a lot.

Quoting "Laurence Horrocks-Barlow" <[email protected]>:

Are you talking about the GPFSUG github?

https://github.com/gpfsug/gpfsug-tools

The patched rsync there I believe was done by Orlando.

Hi Jaime,

IBM developed a patch for rsync that can replicate ACL?s ? we?ve
used it and it works great ? can?t remember where we downloaded it
from, though.  Maybe someone else on the list who *isn?t* having a
senior moment can point you to it?

Does anyone know of a functional standard alone tool to
systematically and recursively find and replicate ACLs that works
well with GPFS?

* We're currently using rsync, which will replicate permissions
fine, however it leaves the ACL's behind. The --perms option for
rsync is blind to ACLs.

* The native linux trick below works well with ext4 after an
rsync, but makes a mess on GPFS.
     % getfacl -R /path/to/source > /root/perms.ac
     % setfacl --restore=/root/perms.acl

* The native GPFS mmgetacl/mmputacl pair does not have a built-in
recursive option.

Any ideas?

Thanks
Jaime
