Title
Return Code 122 'The data are passed to a system call is too small' -
Description
Return Code 122 'The data are passed to a system call is too small.' -
Cause
One known cause is when permissions are attempting to be set to a target machine that is formatted with FAT32 instead of NTFS. Permissions cannot be set to a file residing on a FAT partition.
Another known cause is when there are explicit Denies set on the object that are prohibiting the user or the script from changing permissions.
A third cause is that Inheritance may be set in a manner that requires it to be changed.
-
Resolution
In most cases, issue is due to incompatible permissions (apply NTFS permissions to FAT for example). In the cases that you can make changes to a permissions element, change the “File/Registry Permissions” element settings from "Do not modify this objects inheritance" to "Allow this object to inherit from parent".
Note: If you received this return code on an object other than those listed above, please contact Quest Software Support.
