On SLES 12 sp4, a shell  call sed with ‘-i’ flag   to modify the file execution and report an errort,  This shell worked well on the previous server, The linux user (tried also with root) can create, read and update any files in the NFS mounted folder. But the temporary file created by sed doesn’t work.

cbs@anbob:~/roamingfile> seq 1 5 >text.txt
cbs@anbob:~/roamingfile> id
uid=2001(cbs) gid=6601(onip) groups=6601(onip),100(users),2000(timesten),2001(ttadmin),2002(cbsadm),2003(dba),2004(oinstall)
cbs@anbob:~/roamingfile> sed -i '1d' 123.txt
sed: couldn't close <unknown>: Permission denied

cbs@anbob:~/roamingfile> sed --version
sed (GNU sed) 4.2.2

Note:
If the permission problem usually occurs in the open phase, here is the prompt close, Using strace tracking this show the error is reported when the file generated temporarily by sed try to close.(note root user work fine)

It works well after changing to another version of sed(SLES 11)

 
cbs@anbob:~/roamingfile> /another_release/sed -i '1d' 123.txt
cbs@anbob:~/roamingfile>
cbs@anbob:~/roamingfile> cat 123.txt

cbs@anbob:~/roamingfile> /another_release/sed --version

There are reasons to suspect that this is a bug in the current sed, and you can use other ksh to report an error.
