Hi

I have a bit of a specific requirement.

I have a server that currently has a 12T worth of data on it on an xfs formatted LV.

currently the file permissions are set via an LDAP, however we are having to move to AD for out authentication mechanism. Which will change the value of the existing UID's and GID's

Since XFS has a lot of mechanisms that allow things to happen in parallel. I was wondering if there was a way of interacting at the file system level to facilitate a change of UID's on files rather than having to just chown recursively down the file system. The faster I can update the permissions the better basically
