[Gluster-users] group write permissions not being respected
Hi We have just migrated our data to a new file server (more space, old server was showing its age). We have a volume for collaborative use, based on group membership. In our new server, the group write permissions are not being respected (e.g. the owner of a directory can still write to that directory but any other member of the associated group cannot, even though the directory clearly has group write permissions set). This is occurring regardless of how many groups the user is a member of (i.e. users that are members of fewer then 16 groups are still affected). the relevant fstab line from the server looks like localhost:/data-volume /gdata glusterfs defaults 0 0 and for a client: mseas-data2:/gdata /gdata nfs defaults 0 0 Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Pat Haley Email: phaley at mit.edu Center for Ocean Engineering Phone: (617) 253-6824 Dept. of Mechanical Engineering Fax: (617) 253-8125 MIT, Room 5-213 http://web.mit.edu/phaley/www/ 77 Massachusetts Avenue Cambridge, MA 02139-4301

[Gluster-users] group write permissions not being respected
Hi, Another piece of data. There are 2 distinct volumes on the file server 1. a straight nfs partition 2. a gluster volume (served over nfs) The straight nfs partition does respect the group write permissions, while the gluster volume does not. Any suggestions on how to debug this or what additional information would be helpful would be greatly appreciated Thanks On 08/30/2016 06:01 PM, Pat Haley wrote:> > Hi > > We have just migrated our data to a new file server (more space, old > server was showing its age).
