You should restore the file by copying it not from /ifs/.snapshot but from the original directory in its .snapshot directory.

This should resolve the permissions issue;  Adam is correct, /ifs/.snapshot is owned by root whereas the directory

/ifs/is4/HDFS/elz_uat/tmp/test/d1/.snapshot


should have the same permissions as the parent d1 directory.


To verify, cd to /ifs/is4/HDFS/elz_uat/tmp/test/d1/.snapshot and have a look.  You should see a directory called snap_temp_d1_25nov in there, and the files in that directory.  cp the file of concern from there to wherever you like.


cheers

The user you are using does not have the file permissions to read the file you are trying to restore.

The RBAC permissions simply allow that user to create, modify, delete, or otherwise manage snapshots.  It does not give that user permission to over-ride any file-level permissions.

Directory( /ifs/.snapshot/) where snapshot getting created is owned by root.
