acl group permissions

I forgot to tell you that when a gpfs file system is created the default value for authorization types supported is posix.

Hi,

It would help if you could tell us exactly what you did, including the
actual sequence of qcommands (mount - or the relevant part of
/etc/fstab if the mount is automatic, - setfacl, etc.) and the
outcome, as in what exactly does not work, including the output of
"mount -l" and of "ls -ld" on some of the problematic directories and
files, including /ngs itself.

It is very difficult to diagnose a generic "does not work" problem.
