Using vob_sidwalk to change or update VOB users and groups
The vob_sidwalk command provides a flexible means of reassigning ownership of objects in a VOB, updating the SIDS that represent the groups in a VOB’s group list, and correcting VOB storage directory protections.
Resetting VOB storage directory protections

Resetting VOB storage directory protections

About this task

If VOB storage directory ACLs have been damaged during a migration (or by any other event), you can use vob_sidwalk as shown here to correct the ACLs on the VOB storage directory and container files:

vob_sidwalk –recover_filesystem vob-tag SIDfile-path

When used with the –recover_filesystem option, vob_sidwalk also corrects the SIDs for the VOB’s supplementary group list.
