If you configure quotas on the qtrees and set the quotas to report but not restrict, I believe this will get you the information you require.

paleon is correct, add this to the /etc/quotas file:

current quota syntax, only one entry needed:

* tree@/vol/your_volume_name - - - -

old quota syntax, separate entry needed for each qtree in the volume:

/vol/your_volume_name/qtree_name tree - - - -

Then run quota on your_volume_name

This may take quite some time to finish, but once done, you can run quota report to see the qtree size, as well as the number of files
