Permissions for the Hostdata Items

Each of the following host identity data item is protected by an ACL:

/.../cellname/hosts/hostname/config/hostdata/host_name

/.../cellname/hosts/hostname/config/hostdata/cell_name

/.../cellname/hosts/hostname/config/hostdata/cell_aliases

/.../cellname/hosts/hostname/config/hostdata/post_processors

Each ACL can have the following permissions:

c (control)
Modify the ACL

d (delete)
Delete the item

p (purge)
Delete the backing storage for an item

r (read)
Read an item's data

w (write)
Modify an item's data

Use the acl object to view or modify ACLs. For example, use the following operation to view the ACL for the cell_aliases hostdata item on host silver.

dcecp> acl show /.:/hosts/silver/config/hostdata/cell_aliases
{unauthenticated r}
{user hosts/silver/self cdprw}
{any_other r}
dcecp>
