Removes an access control entry (ACE) from the access control set (ACS) of a directory and its contents, or from an entire subtree. SYNOPSIS REMOVE SUBTREE tree-name[...] ACCESS principal [EXCLUDE entry-type] Arguments tree-name The name of the topmost directory in the subtree. When used without the optional recursion notation, the change applies only to the specified directory and and the links and objects in that directory. The recursion notation causes the change to additionally apply to all child directories and their contents. principal The principal whose ACE is being removed. Principals can be specified as a group name or an individual name in the format nodename.user. entry-type One or more of the following types of entries to exclude from the change: objects, links, or directories. Multiple directories can be excluded in a single command. Use any combination of the following entry-type specifiers, separating multiple arguments with commas: objects links directory directory name Description This command removes an ACE from the access control set (ACS) of a particular directory (and its contents) or from an entire subtree of directories. You can use the optional recursion notation (...) to modify the ACEs associated with all the child directories (and their contents). You can use the optional exclude argument to restrict the type of entries affected by this command. You can also use exclude with the recursion notation to prevent certain directories from being processed. ACCESS RIGHTS You must have control and write access to the directory you specify as well as the contents of the directory. If you use the command recursively, you also need control and write access to all child directories (and their contents) of the directory you specify.
