How to Use the CHMOD Utility
Use the CHMOD utility to set file permissions.
To Access CHMOD from the Dashboard
To run CHMOD from the Support Tools Dashboard:
1. Use the System Select screen to select the system you want to work with.
2. From the Dashboard menu, select Common Tools > CHMOD.
3. In the Arguments field, enter desired arguments, as described in the Using
section below.
Note: When entering arguments, the CHMOD command is already implied. Do not
enter it in the Arguments field.
4. Specify the command duration time or accept the default (60 seconds). This is
the amount of time the command will attempt to run before terminating.
5. If desired, check Elevate Command Priority. This ensures the command will run
regardless of the level of server activity.
