NimbostratusFile Permissions behavior for res-admin role
Hi All,
Need some confirmation and advise on the below. I have some files created in my home directory. Where ab12cd is my id and file.txt is the content file. I had modified the file permissions to 711, that's rwx for myself and just x for groups and others.
Meaning I would have read/write/execute permissions on the file and others would just have execute permissions alone.
eg:
pwd
/home/ab12cd/
chmod 711 file.txt
But when I logged with another id xy12xy which is a resource admin account, I'm still able to read the file.
eg:
pwd
/home/xy12xy/
cat file.txt
Hello
When I tested the same on normal linux machines its working fine. Is it to do with the resource-admin privileges. Any insight will be helpful.

Got the answer over phone from F5 engineer :) Resource admin provides bash access, any user with bash access works with almost root privileges. So you cannot restrict with file permission settings if role shared has bash. And bash can be shared to admin/res-admin alone.
