Chapter 16.  ACLs in dCache

Irina Kozlova

Paul Millar

Starting with the 1.9.3 series, dCache includes support for Access Control Lists (ACLs). This support is conforming to the NFS version 4 Protocol specification.

This chapter provides some background information and details on configuring dCache to use ACLs and how to administer the resulting system. Some additional information can be found on the wiki page: http://trac.dcache.org/projects/dcache/wiki/Integrate.

Known limitations

At the time of writing, support for ACLs in dCache is not complete. The SRM component lacks support for ACLs. The other dCache doors support ACLs on all operations.
