Dear users/developers/support,
I'd like to ask if there is a fast way to manipulate the permission mask of
many files (millions).
I tried on 900k files and a recursive chmod (chmod 0### -R path) takes about
1000s, with about 50% usage of mmfsd daemon.
I tried with the perl's internal function chmod that can operate on an array of
files, and it takes about 1/3 of the previous method. Which is already a good
result.
I've seen the possibility to run a policy to execute commands, but I would
avoid to execute external commands through mmxargs, 1M of times; would you ?
Does anybody have any suggestion to do this operation with minimum disruption
on the system ?
Thank you,
Alvise
