chown via ssh on a VNXe possible

Hi,

the topic pretty much already states my Problem/Question. Is it possible to login via ssh and execute commands like chown?

I'd need to automatically chown 10+ mIllion files from time to time and via NFS that take forever.

Thanks a lot,

Ben

    There is no access to user data from either ssh or uemcli. From Ben's description above it sounds like he is looking for the ability to do a "chown" on his user data files. The only way to to that is via NFS or CIFS.

    Hi Ben,

    As per the design of VNXe, ssh has to be only used by support or engineering.

    However there is another set of cli for end customers called "uemcli" which can be downloaded from https://supportbeta.emc.com/downloads/downloads_search.htm?productId=8864&name=VNXe Series&id=2257352&type=3&contentID=8864&termId=3869

    install on the system from where you need to run the cli commands. There is also a guide on how to run the uemcli commands please refer it for your reference.

    Regards
