Operating Systems AIX Unable to set ACLs on sulog - need to grant read permission to a normal user on AIX 6.1 Post 303040689 by zxmaus on Monday 4th of November 2019 11:35:35 AM

I have not worked with RBAC ever, so all is just guessing, but I think that is your issue here. Can you find out if the root user is actually allowed in RBAC to set ACLs? If he is not, add that permission.
I am wondering as well if it would not be easier to just somehow allow splunk via rbac to read these files?
