chacl usage


The chacl command
#chacl "money.%+rwx" file
(money is the username)
gives me an error
"errno 251 Function not available"
Please help me to resolve the problem.

Thanks

Re: chacl usage

chacl command doesn't work on vxfs file systems.
If you try to use chacl with JFS, the following error is returned:

chacl: Function is not available (errno = 251)

my guess is your are using JFS then ?

Re: chacl usage

Hi,

You will need to upgrade to online JFS v3.3 to use ACLs.

Hope this helps. Regards.
