Dell PowerStore Configuring SMB

PDF

Manage ACLs

The Windows client sets and modifies Access permissions of SMB shares (known as Access Control Lists or ACLs) using the MMC console. You can now manage ACLs of SMB shares on the SDNAS cluster directly from PowerStore, using UI or REST API.

NOTE:For details on using the REST API to set ACLs, see Dell PowerStore REST API Reference Guide at dell.com/powerstoredocs.
NOTE:Access permissions of files and directories in the SMB shares can be managed only using the Windows client.

To open the Access Control List screen using the PowerStore Manager, select Storage > File Systems > SMB Shares > [SMB share] > More Actions > Access Control List.

The Access Control List screen displays the list of Access Control Entries (ACEs) that are defined for the selected SMB. For each ACE, the trustee name or ID, access level, and access type are listed. You can filter the list by either of the attributes.

NOTE:The default ACE grants full permission to everyone.

From the Access Control List dialog you can:

  • Add ACE - For details, see Add an Access Control Entry.
  • Modify ACE - Edit any of the selected ACE fields.
  • Delete the selected ACE.
  • Refresh ACL (under More Actions) - Use this option if you modified the ACL using Windows MMC console or REST API. The Refresh option updates the ACL with the changes.
