quota

Hello:
I plan to use the snapmirror for data migration. Because a quota is configured on the source end, I plan to configure a volume quota on the destination end after the snapmirror is transferred and disconnected. Will the quota be the same as that on the source end?
For example, on the source end, I limit the size of a user to 100GB, and the user has used 50GB
I re-configure quotas on the destination end after the migration to check whether the quotas will be re-restricted

Hi,

Quota can be set for RW volume only. If quota is set to DP volume, the following error occurs:

This operation is not permitted on the read-only volume "XXX" in Vserver "YYY"

Why not considering SVMDR then ? This will replicate the entire configuration of the SVM from source to dest incuding quotas.
