I have a python module that I am nearing the completion of for a project that wraps all of that. It also contains another python script for the easy manipulation of the ACLs from the command line. Once I have that wraped up, hopefully this week, I would be happy to share.

Please validate the sender's email address before clicking on links or attachments as they may not be safe. Hi All, First off, I have very limited experience with GPFS ACL’s, so please forgive me if I’m missing something obvious here. AFAIK, this is the first time we’ve hit something like this… We have a fileset where all the files / directories have GPFS NFSv4 ACL’s set on them. However, unlike most of our filesets where the same ACL is applied to every file / directory in the share, this one has different ACL’s on different files / directories. Now we have the need to add to the existing ACL’s … another group needs access. Unlike regular Unix / Linux ACL’s where setfacl can be used to just add to an ACL (i.e. setfacl -R g:group_name:rwx), I’m not seeing where GPFS has a similar command … i.e. mmputacl seems to expect the _entire_ new ACL to be supplied via either manual entry or an input file. That’s obviously problematic in this scenario. So am I missing something? Is there an easier solution than writing a script which recurses over the fileset, gets the existing ACL with mmgetacl and outputs that to a file, edits that file to add in the new group, and passes that as input to mmputacl? That seems very cumbersome and error prone, especially if I’m the one writing the script!
