User Commands (s) setfilepriv(1)
NOTES
This command is supported on systems running J06.11 or later J-series RVUs or H06.22 or later
H-series RVUs only
Only Members of Safeguard SECURITY-PRV-ADMINISTRATOR (SEC-PRIV-ADMIN or
SPA) group are permitted to explicitly set or reset file privileges. For example, only members of
the Safeguard SECURITY_OSS_ADMINISTRATOR (SOA) group can use the initfilepriv com-
mand to set the file privileges needed by the Backup and Restore 2 product to access files in a
restricted-access fileset.
File privileges are removed from a file if the file is modified. Any change to the file privileges of
a file is audited. File privileges are inherited by child processes created using the fork() func-
tion.
If the main executable of a process has a file privilege, then all user libraries and ordinary DLLs
loaded into the process must also have that file privilege. Public DLLs and implicit DLLs do not
need file privileges to be loaded into a process.
NFS client processes are not allowed to write to a file that has file privileges.
