Restore of raw devices fails on Linux with permission issue

If NSM backs up a raw device as a snapshot or clone, and then restores the device, the ownership of the device pathname changes to root. This change prevents nonroot users from using this device pathname.

Workaround

Log in as root, and then type the chown command to change the owner of the device pathname to the correct user.
