Synopsis

  • Change ACL (Access Control List) inheritance and optionally copy inherited ACE’s (Access Control Entry) to dedicated ACE’s or vice versa.

Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments

path

path / required

Path to be used for changing inheritance

reorganize

boolean

  • no

  • yes

For P(state) = absent, indicates if the inherited ACE's should be copied from the parent directory. This is necessary (in combination with removal) for a simple ACL instead of using multiple ACE deny entries.

For P(state) = present, indicates if the inherited ACE's should be deduplicated compared to the parent directory. This removes complexity of the ACL structure.

state

string

  • absent

  • present

Specify whether to enable present or disable absent ACL inheritance.
