File System Replication with Replicator V2, Permission issues
We have a team that would like to do some testing with some File Systems. Rather, than restoring from NDMP Backups. I decided to perform a "One Time File System Copy".
Config #1: All our File System are mounted under specific VDMs.
I initiated the Copy with completion. I did NOT Replicate the VDM.
I then mounted the copy with R/W permissions.
I created a new CIFS server (for testing) and created a Share on the "Copied" File System and mounted it under the new CIFS server.
I'm having all sorts of permissions errors. First of all, I couldn't even access the newly created share. I had to modify the permissions and then it started generating errors.
The goal is to simply copy or replicate the file systems, mount them to a new CIFS server so Development can test.
Should I replicate rather than COPY? If yes, should I replicate the VDM?
Please consider I'm replicating to the SAME array and SAME Data Mover.
Thanks,
Damian
