Solved: Users home directories and quotas - Page 2

TRYAREBOOT · ‎2013-04-11

I need to migrate a bunch of users home directories onto our FAS2240

Currently they are all folders within a hidden share off our main fileserver and each folder has permissions set so only that the user can only access their own folder. Each user has a 10GB quota.

I have been looking at using the cifs_homedir.cfg and specifying ntname for the naming convention but I cannot work out how to apply a quota that will apply to each user.

Could somebody point me in the correct direction ?

Thanks

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

here is my working example. Replace *DOMAIN_NAME* with your Windows Domain Name:

create qtree /vol/userhome/*DOMAIN_NAME*

/etc/cifs_homedir.cfg:

/vol/userhome/*DOMAIN_NAME*

/etc/quotas is attached.

Default Quota is set to 1GB. Exceptions needs to be configured afterwards.

Set home dirs hidden:

FILER> options cifs.ho

options cifs.home_dir_namestyle hidden

options cifs.home_dirs_public_for_admin on

Enjoy!

Florian
