You configure the FlexVol volume security style to determine the type of permissions used for data on FlexVol volumes of the storage virtual machine (SVM).
- Perform one of the following actions:
| If the FlexVol volume... | Use the command... |
|---|
| Does not yet exist | volume create and include the -security-style parameter to specify the security style. |
| Already exists | volume modify and include the -security-style parameter to specify the security style. |
The possible options for the FlexVol volume security style are
unix ,
ntfs , or
mixed .
If you do not specify a security style when creating a FlexVol volume, the volume inherits the security style of the root volume.
For more information about the volume create or volume modify commands, see the Logical Storage Management Guide.
- To display the configuration, including the security style of the FlexVol volume you created, enter the following command: volume show -volume volume_name -instance
