File access privileges

Last Updated : Jun 10, 2026 |

For security reasons, administrative users cannot modify files owned by the root user using commands such as chmod, rm, chown, or vi. Administrative users cannot modify files owned by root even if obtaining root privileges by running commands with sudo.

If required, you can modify files owned by root as the sroot user. To obtain the sroot privileges, you must enable the EASG functionality first. After enabling EASG, you can switch to the sroot user by running the following command:

su - sroot
Tip:

You can check the file ownership by running the following command:

ls -l <FILENAME>
