PowerScale OneFS 9.8.0.0 Web Administration Guide

Mixed protocol environments

You enable the protocols that you intend to use for file sharing. You can configure your OneFS cluster to use SMB or NFS exclusively, or both. You can also enable HTTP, FTP, and SSH. You configure default shares and exports for each protocol that you enable.

Use the isi services protocol enable command to enable each protocol. For example, to enable NFS, use the following command.
isi services nfs enable

Access rights are consistently enforced across access protocols on all security models. For example, a user is granted or denied the same rights to a file whether using SMB, NFS, or HDFS. Clusters running OneFS support global policy settings that enable you to customize the default access control list (ACL) and UNIX permissions settings. OneFS 9.3.0.0 and later supports HDFS ACLs.

OneFS is configured with standard UNIX permissions on the file tree. Through Windows Explorer or OneFS administrative tools, you can give any file or directory an ACL. In addition to Windows domain users and groups, ACLs in OneFS can include local, NIS, and LDAP users and groups. After a file is given an ACL, the mode bits are no longer enforced and exist only as an estimate of the effective permissions.

NOTE:It is recommended that you configure ACL and UNIX permissions only if you fully understand how they interact with one another.
