In our bank production environment - IBM AIX 5.3, we have a particular parent folder inside which an application creates temporary folders & files. These temp folders exist for the lifetime of the user session within the application and then get deleted automatically.
Since these temp folders contain business data, the default permissions is set to 700.
However, frequent 100% utilization of the parent folder now requires me as an application administrator to run usage scripts for housekeeping & information purposes.
The problem: I cannot review usage of the temp folders (due to 700) default setting. We cannot run such scripts via root as per our system admin policies.
What can be done for this ?
Is there anyway to set a default ACL for each new folder/file that gets created and allow access to my application admin user ID ? At least it will allow me to run ls -lR or du command successfully in such cases.
I want to set ACL permissions using this command in solaris 10 , but I get an error message.
server# mkdir dir1
server# setfacl -m user:allan:rwx dir1
setacl error: Operation not applicable
Any one can help in this matter.
