Setup: 4 XServe G4 interconnected to 5 XServe RAID with QLogic Fibre Channel Switch. Using XSan 1.4.2 and 10.4.11. The SAN volumes are shared by both afb and smb. Another XServe G5 is OD master and primary metadata controller. Clients connect and use a sync program (Folders Synchronizer, similar to rsync with a gui) to backup important folders on their local hard drive. Things were working fine.
Upgraded the XServes to Leopard. At first things seemed to be working fine. Users could login from either Mac or PC, see their files/folders, no missing data.
But now several users report they can’t access some or all folders in their home folder. Dragging a file, using Folder Synchronizer, or using cp from command line gives “Operation not permitted” error. Checked permissions on folder and files, they are rwx—— and owned by the correct user. No ACLs. They can however delete files by dragging them to trash or using rm.
Most (maybe all) of the folders affected have extended attributes or files with them inside. Using ls -l@ will show entries like
-rwx——@ 1 joann staff 12292 Dec 6 2007 .DS_Store
com.apple.FinderInfo 32
-rwx——@ 1 joann staff 11837 Jan 23 2003 dirpay.pdf
com.apple.FinderInfo 32
-rwx——@ 1 joann staff 0 Jul 1 07:18 Personal Nicknames
com.apple.ResourceFork 340
Tried using chflags nouchg,noschg didn’t help. Tried using xattr -d com.apple.FinderInfo still no help.Tried using chmod 777 and chown just to make sure permissions are OK and still get the error.
Quite a few “Got error -9806 for SSL Handshake” in the syslog.d – don’t know if that’s related.
Anyone with any ideas?
