We had a similar problem with some 4.2 versions. Basically, files would get created as root and then chowned to a user, but without any quota usage attribution.
I don't see that behaviour on our 4.3R3 test box, so Netapp probably fixed it. I can create/copy new files as root and chown them, or chown one user's files to another. The quota counts are always updated properly. I haven't tried this on a 4.2 filer yet.
