Cannot change ownership of elasticsearch directory in colab

I was trying to install elastic search in Google Colab, and it seems that to run the service, you need to change the ownership to a user that is **not root**. I tried the chown command for this and then did an ls -l but don't see the ownership change. In fact, when I use the verbose option with chown I can see the logs showing the permission change from root:root to daemon:daemon. !chown -R -v daemon:daemon elasticsearch-8.15.0/ Following is a snippet of the output illustrating the above changed ownership of 'elasticsearch-8.15.0/lib/elasticsearch-8.15.0.jar' from root:root to daemon:daemon changed ownership of 'elasticsearch-8.15.0/lib/elasticsearch-preallocate-8.15.0.jar' from root:root to daemon:daemon changed ownership of 'elasticsearch-8.15.0/lib/elasticsearch-x-content-8.15.0.jar' from root:root to daemon:daemon changed ownership of 'elasticsearch-8.15.0/lib/elasticsearch-lz4-8.15.0.jar' from root:root to daemon:daemon changed ownership of 'elasticsearch-8.15.0/lib/elasticsearch-cli-8.15.0.jar' from root:root to daemon:daemon changed ownership of 'elasticsearch-8.15.0/lib/elasticsearch-simdvec-8.15.0.jar' from root:root to daemon:daemon changed ownership of 'elasticsearch-8.15.0/lib/elasticsearch-native-8.15.0.jar' from root:root to daemon:daemon changed ownership of 'elasticsearch-8.15.0/lib/elasticsearch-core-8.15.0.jar' from root:root to daemon:daemon changed ownership of 'elasticsearch-8.15.0/lib/elasticsearch-logging-8.15.0.jar' from root:root to daemon:daemon changed ownership of 'elasticsearch-8.15.0/lib/elasticsearch-secure-sm-8.15.0.jar' from root:root to daemon:daemon changed ownership of 'elasticsearch-8.15.0/lib/elasticsearch-geo-8.15.0.jar' from root:root to daemon:daemon changed ownership of 'elasticsearch-8.15.0/lib/elasticsearch-plugin-analysis-api-8.15.0.jar' from root:root to daemon:daemon changed ownership of 'elasticsearch-8.15.0/lib/elasticsearch-plugin-api-8.15.0.jar' from root:root to daemon:daemon changed ownership of 'elasticsearch-8.15.0/lib/elasticsearch-grok-8.15.0.jar' from root:root to daemon:daemon changed ownership of 'elasticsearch-8.15.0/lib/elasticsearch-tdigest-8.15.0.jar' from root:root to daemon:daemon But doing an ls -l still shows root as the owner and group. !ls -l elasticsearch-8.15.0/ total 2273 drwx------ 2 root root 4096 Aug 11 13:44 bin drwx------ 3 root root 4096 Aug 11 13:45 config drwx------ 8 root root 4096 Aug 5 10:11 jdk drwx------ 6 root root 4096 Aug 5 10:11 lib -rwx------ 1 root root 3860 Aug 5 10:04 LICENSE.txt drwx------ 2 root root 4096 Aug 5 10:07 logs drwx------ 83 root root 4096 Aug 5 10:12 modules -rwx------ 1 root root 2285006 Aug 5 10:07 NOTICE.txt drwx------ 2 root root 4096 Aug 5 10:07 plugins -rwx------ 1 root root 9111 Aug 5 10:04 README.asciidoc PS - Since this is a colab question as well as a linux question, I wasn't sure whether to ask this here or on the data science forum(https://datascience.stackexchange.com/questions/tagged/colab) . Please let me know if this is the wrong place.
