Issue

  • When copying subset of data inheriting NTFS ACE permissions from a larger set of data, the permissions copied to the destination will be incomplete
  • The missing permissions are inherited ACEs derived from files outside the scope of the copied data set
  • This can lead to failed to set security descriptor for in the xcp copy/sync :
