Permission Issue Cleaning up extracted package
Hello -
After using tar to extract the OneFS_v7.2.0.1_Install.tar.gz package under \ifs\data, there are directories and files that I cannot delete.
For example:
./bin:
total 206
drwxrwxrwx + 2 root wheel 21 Apr 3 11:29 .
drwxr-xr-x + 9 root wheel 255 Apr 3 13:47 ..
-r-sr-xr-x 1 root wheel 51829 Feb 7 04:20 rcp
./lib:
total 8513
drwxr-xr-x + 2 root wheel 87 Apr 3 11:29 .
drwxr-xr-x + 9 root wheel 255 Apr 3 13:47 ..
-r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 4814045 Feb 7 04:20 libc.so.7
-r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 119598 Feb 7 04:20 libcrypt.so.4
-r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 551332 Feb 7 04:20 libthr.so.3
I cannot delete the /ifs/data/bin directory because it is not empty, and even root does not have write access to the rcp file. Is there any way for me to clean this up?
Thanks!
Dawn

Run
chflags -R 0 /ifs/data/bin /ifs/data/lib
before remove the folders (that's a 0 as in zero). This clears any file flags that can prevent deletion (not that UNIX permissions and Windows ACLs weren't enough... and not to be confused with extended attributes either...)
