Applies to

  • ONTAP 9
  • CIFS

Answer

  • Under some conditions, SeRestorePrivilege will allow users to access files/directories without being checked against the permissions for that object
  • If Access Based Enumeration is in use, the user(s) with this privilege will not be able to enumerate/see the data in a share, but may still be able to access it if they know the path
