ACL - enterprise or not?

[ttys42]

I've noticed a contradiction regarding Access Control Lists (ACLs) and SELinux support in BeeGFS, and I'm looking for clarification.

The official feature matrix (https://www.beegfs.io/c/enterprise-features/) indicates that ACL support is included in the Community Version. However, inside beegfs-client.conf, both the sysACLsEnabled and sysSELinuxEnabled configuration options are explicitly placed under the [Enterprise Features] section.

Could you clarify whether ACL and SELinux support are considered Community or Enterprise features?

The EULA (https://www.beegfs.io/docs/BeeGFS_License_Agreement.txt) also mentions ACL as enterprise feature while not mentioning SELinux support at all.

Hi @ttys42 SELinux is not an enterprise feature, and with BeeGFS 8 POSIX ACLs are no longer considered an enterprise feature. Only NFS-v4 style ACLs (once supported) will be considered an enterprise feature. I'll make sure we update the beegfs-client.conf file to correctly reflect this.
