Important Notes
-
The permissions of vxfs_cmd.log will not change immediately after running the vxtunefs command.
-
Some data must be written to the vxfs_cmd.log file after the command is run for the new permissions to take effect.
-
To force this update, customers can run:
/opt/VRTS/bin/vxtunefs
This ensures the new permissions are applied to the vxfs_cmd.log file.
