Operating Systems Solaris Change Dir doubt and some advice. Post 302534887 by checoturco on Wednesday 29th of June 2011 05:33:40 AM

Hello DGPicket,

thanks for your answer.
I known that different ownership can change access and i know that the chown, chgrp and chmod commands have -r/-R option. I cannot use the recursevily option due that
i know exactly which directories should be changed. Change the ownership for these directories/files it's not a problem as well because the ownership which i'm changing to
it's the correct ownership for these directories/files ( I have more equal servers with the same OS and these directories/files have the same owner as the one which i'm changing to.
The main point of my question was, being this server in production, processes and services running, this change will not affect the performance of the server or
have some impact in these services/processes, taking in account that they started as a different owner. Imagine that by mistake, these directories/files were configured
with the wrong owner and now i'm changing to the correct owner. I'm sure that, if the server is restarted, these services/processes will work perfectly with this owner.

Thanks,

Checo

       install-solaris invokes either a text-based installer or a graphical installer.
