Backup of ACLs

Veeam Agent for IBM AIX supports backup and restore of NFSv4 Access Control Lists (ACLs).

Veeam Agent for Oracle Solaris supports backup and restore of NFSv4 and POSIX Access Control Lists (ACLs).

Considerations and Limitations

Veeam Agent backs up all supported ACLs automatically.
[Veeam Agent for IBM AIX] Veeam Agent does not support backup of AIXC ACLs.
You can restore supported ACLs during bare metal recovery or file-level restore on the Veeam Agent machine side. Consider the following about restoring ACLs:

During bare metal recovery, Veeam Agent automatically restores all supported ACLs.
During file-level restore, you can restore only NFSv4 ACLs.
Restoring NFSv4 ACLs requires NFSv4 to be configured on the Veeam Agent machine. For information on enabling NFSv4 in IBM AIX, see this Veeam KB article.

If you perform file-level restore in the recovery environment, the backup is mounted using the NFSv3 protocol. As a result, restoring ACLs from such backup mount will not be possible.

You cannot restore ACLs when you perform guest file restore in Veeam Backup & Replication.
