Request for improvement of "Permissions when restoring file sharing area"

[SS2025]

1) I would like an improvement so that the permission information for folders and files taken during a VBR backup of unstructured data can be restored without the permissions at the time of backup being changed.
Currently, when restoring to storage with a different ACL structure than at the time of backup, or when restoring to a different protocol version (from NFSver3 to NFSver4), the permission information for folders and files taken during backup is changed.

2) I would like to be able to specify the file sharing protocol version when backing up or restoring VBR unstructured data.

Hi SS2025,

1.) It’s expected that we cannot restore the exact original permissions across different protocols. NFS v3 / v4.1 do use different permission models as far as I know.

2.) We should always use the highest NFS version supported by the target file server. I’ll double-check this with our QA team and see if there’s a way to control the NFS protocol used by the backup server for backup and restore operations.

Best,
Fabian
