Dell EMC Expert – Cloud Architect — Question 3

You are working with a company to migrate from a Microsoft Windows file server to a Dell EMC Isilon cluster using the account “admin1” in the “Domain Admin” group. When opening a directory, you receive an error message stating “permission denied”. You check the permissions and see that Domain Users are denied, Domain Admin has Full Control, and admin1 has read permission.
Why is the access denied?

Answer options

• A. admin1 is not the owner of the directory
• B. admin1 only has read permission
• C. admin1 is a member of the Domain Admin group
• D. Deny ACE entry is listed first

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because admin1's permission level is limited to read access, which does not allow for the actions required to open the directory. The other options do not accurately address the reason for the denied access, as being part of the Domain Admin group or not owning the directory does not override the specific permission granted.
