DataSync Agent -- What user does it run as?

0

A customer is running a POC of DataSync to sync files from an Isilon file system to S3. They have strict audit logging requirements and would like to configure the DataSync agent to access the file system via NFS using a specific user in order to track its access in their audit logs.

What user does the DataSync Agent run as?

Can it be configured to run as a different user or to access the NFS mount as a specific user?

Today, DataSync will mount NFS locations as the root user. This is why we recommend no_root_squash to be enabled in our docs (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/datasync/latest/userguide/create-nfs-location.html). We do this intentionally as it gives us the most likely chance of being able to access all files on the file system. I'm not sure if Isilon supports root_squashing to a particular UID/GID, but that might be a workaround here.
