Security Models, SnapTrees, and Volumes
Volumes and directories created on the root of a volume (aka SnapTree directories)
are assigned either a Windows- or a UNIX-style security model. The security model
determines the file-level security scheme that will apply to files and folders within
the volume or SnapTree directory.
New volumes default to the Windows-style security model. The security model of a
volume determines the security model to which newly created SnapTree directory
will default. Security models for a volume can be changed on the
screens.
