for performance reason, netapp still didn't allow fine quotas under qtree for different subdirectory you can only set a quota for a qtree (first level directory) - and combination of qtree/user/group

it appear that netapp let third party tools take this feature into their work (like virus scanning with external av server)

here is a link to a workable solution : http://www.ntpsoftware.com/products/qfsfornas/

you can also make a capacity planing and a per user/application consumption tracking

Hi all, Do I need to apply quotas per share on Filer. It is posible with third part product such as StorageCentral from Veritas. Has anyone probed it?

Thanks
