Permission Denied error when executing binaries with restrictive permissions on a Red Hat Storage Server volume
Issue
When a file has the following file permissions: rwx--x--x
(mode 0711) it should be executable for a regular (non-root) user. This is true for regular and NFS file systems.
Within a RHSS volume which has been mounted using the glusterfs-fuse
option, it is not possible to run the executable which has above file permissions set. However, when the RHSS volume has been mounted on a client using NFS as mount option then the file can be executed as expected.
Environment
- Red Hat Storage Server 2.0 (RHSS) with glusterfs-3.3.0-22.el6rhs
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 in the glusterfs clients.
