I may be confused but it sounds like you are describing the old behavior, which 6.5.3 exhibits.
Yes. But certain configurations of 7.0 do *not* have that problem. I have user quotas under a qtree in a traditional volume that show the "correct" answer when the user runs "df", meaning the user sees their partition sized to their quota.
It sounds like it does the behavior you describe if the user has a user quota inside of a mounted qtree (with a quota?). I do not see this when mounting a volume directly. This sounds like the difference in the behavior.
What confuses me is how it should behave when a user has a complex combination of quotas that apply to a qtree, a user, and several group quotas. Choosing the smallest quota may be the most conservative answer but by no means is it necessarily the correct choice and can be more misleading than helpful.
All in all, I was alerted today that a Bug ID 154530 was created and will be "fixed" in a future release.
I took a look at that bug on the NOW site and it was disappointingly vague. It has a title, and nothing else.
