Check on basic permissions in DartFS lab shares and subfolders
This is a quick list of commands to check basic permissions in DartFS lab shares and subfolders
Permission types include, but are not limited to (Read Traverse) (Read Write Traverse Control)(Read Write Traverse Control)
Anyone with a Research Computing account should be able to change directories(folders) to top-level lab space listings:
cd /dartfs-hpc/rc/lab/T/ or /dartfs/rc/lab/T/
then cd to the lab share name
cd /dartfs-hpc/rc/lab/T/<TheLabShareName>
Here is a command to see who has what permissions:
listacl .
Test to see if you have permissions to change directories into a subfolder:
cd <TheSubfolderName>
if you can navigate to a certain subfolder, you can list the files, and likely use "more" to read a text file if there is one in the directory
ls
more junkfile.txt
(ctrl z to exit if the file is long)
to test write permissions, the 'touch' command can be used to create a quick text file in a directory, if the user has write permissions:
touch junkfile.txt
