Hi,

I am a Unix administrator, new to Netapp. We have an IBM N6240 running data ontap 8.0.2p3. I created an nfs share on the netapp with rw and root access by an Ubuntu linux (10.4). I got a very weird permission issue.

From FilerView:

/vol/napc2_p2_kk1         Read-Write Access (10.49.51.119)

                                                Root Access (10.49.51.119)

                                               Security (sys)

On Ubuntu Linux:

root@arsenal:~# df -k /kingkong/

Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on

red-str-napc2v49-p2:/vol/napc2_p2_kk1

                     8589934592 4266101440 4323833152  50% /kingkong

root@arsenal:~# ls -ld /kingkong

drwxrwxrwx 4 root root 4096 2012-04-09 10:15 /kingkong

When I copy files, I got thses errors:

root@arsenal:/data1# cp -r test1 /kingkong

cp: cannot create regular file `/kingkong/test1/test2/afg/po_533107/po_533107_0000000/po_533107_nir_0000000.tfw': Permission denied

cp: cannot create regular file `/kingkong/test1/test2/afg/po_533107/po_533107_0000000/po_533107_blu_0000000.tif': Permission denied

..

..

“ls” shows me the file name have been created but data size is 0.

root@arsenal:/data1# ls -l /kingkong/test1/test2/afg/po_533107/po_533107_0000000/

If I do it again, no error. Everything looks fine after copy.

Can somebody help me to find out what is going wrong?

Thanks
