Thanks for the response.
When i have provide isilonrep01 only root access
Only root user on client was able to write to it
Regular user with r/w access on server was not able to write to it..
When i have provide isilonrep01 only RW access
ROOT and Regular User were not able to write to it
Is this expected behaviour?
That doesn't sound right. I'm thinking this might be a permissions issue.
Does directory you are writing into have the right permissions to allow the regular user write files? Is the cluster joined to the same authentication system as the unix client?

Hello sansule78,
You can find this information in the Web Administration Guide for your version of oneFS. Here is the link to Web Administration Guide for 8.2.2. https://dl.dell.com/content/docu96962

Root will mean that any file write as root on the client (UID 0), will be written as root on the cluster (UID O).
In general, this is a bad idea, but needed in some environments.
Read-write means that those hosts will have read-write access to the export, and the user's UID on the client will be the same for the files the write on the cluster. However, if root (UID 0) tries to write a file, it will write it as the user named "nobody" as specified in the "User/Group Mappings:" section of the web interface.
