I don’t need this information now, but I can imagine it would be very helpful if I found myself where you were, so I just wanted to take a moment and thank you for taking the time!

<div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">
<span style="font-size: 11pt;" class="">Recently I asked what happens when you use “mmchfs -k nfs4” when you already have numerous files (we have millions) with posix ACLs. I have discovered the answer – NOTHING. No existing ACLs change. However, you cannot
feed posix ACLs to mmputacl, it only accepts nfs4 ACLs. You cannot run setfacl, it fails. If you run mmgetacl it shows the ACL in nfs4 format. But if you use mmgetacl -k native it shows you the “real” ACL, which may be a posix ACL. If you have a default posix
ACL set on a directory, new files inherit from the posix ACL and they themselves end up with a posix ACL. The behavior of chmod is different. If a file has a nfs4 ACL then chmod destroys it and replaces it with a nfs4 ACL that essentially mimics the permissions
set by the chmod command. In particular, the new ACL only has ACEs for special:owner@, special:group@, and special:everyone@. Any other ACEs are lost. However, if the file has a posix ACL, then chmod works as expected for a posix ACL. It does not completely
replace the ACL, but it may change the mask:: entry or the user:: entry or the other:: entry. If you set a nfs4 ACL on a file with a posix ACL, then it converts to a nfs4 ACL (mmgetacl -k native outputs the nfs4 ACL).<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 11pt;" class="">Needless to say this is all rather confusing, but we had to run mmchfs -k nfs4 in order to enable SMB access, which we need.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div>
