DESCRIPTION

12       The  pvfs2-chmod  utility  modifies the permission bits on the OrangeFS
13       files specified.  The mode is specified as a three or four digit  octal
14       number in the conventional manner.
15
16       The options are as follows:
17
18       -v     Print version number and exit.
19

ENVIRONMENT

21       PVFS2_DEBUGFILE
22              If set to the path of a local file, redirect debug output to it.
23
24       PVFS2_DEBUGMASK
25              Set  the  OrangeFS debug mask.  Possible masks are documented in
26              pvfs2-set-debugmask(1).

29              If set, the full pathname for an alternate pvfs2tab file
30

33

EXAMPLES

35       Prevent other users from accessing a file.
36
37             pvfs2-chmod 600 /mnt/foo
38
39       Allow the owner and users in the file's group to read  and  modify  the
40       file and other users to only read the file.
41
42             pvfs2-chmod 664 /mnt/foo
43

CAVEATS

45       This  utility  does  not support symbolic permissions like the chmod(1)
46       utility.
47
48       Note that because OrangeFS is a network  file  system,  any  user  with
49       access to the network may be able to circumvent file permissions.
