Setting tree quota at volume level on Clustered DataOntap

Nobill — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 15:06:51 GMT

Hello.

I have volumes without qtree, and due to dedup/compression, I need to set quota to have user see right data used and remaining space.

It was possible to set quota on volume on 7-Mode (something like /vol/volname/-) , but when I set quota on volume it set it as default values for qtree, but do not applied to the volume itself.

do you know if it is possible on C-Dot ?

Thank you for your help

Thank you for your response.

Yes I try, and also all info found on google...

No problem to apply quota on qtree, but I can't find a way to applys quota at volume level, as it was possible with 7-Mode.
