Issue
- Copying a file from an exported NetApp filer share (NFS) to the same filesystem results in the creation of an empty file saying
permission denied. The second try to copy the same file is successful.
[root@host1]$ cp /etc/hosts ./
cp: cannot create regular file `./hosts': Permission denied
[root@host1]$ ls -al
