How To Re-apply Default SMB Share ACL Post Migration - only if Enable write access was disabled

Use this procedure ONLY if you deselected allow “Enable write access” on the migration job.  This migration option will apply ACL’s on the target that block all access.  The ACL’s are applied only at the top level folder path.    Any ACL’s that have been applied to child paths of the parent migration path, will retain the ACL’s post migration.

The top level parent modified ACL blocks access to the data even if the share or export level permission allows write access or full control.    It is the combination of Share/export and ACL’s that allow write access to the data.
