System Manager showing quotas twice.

kirtv · ‎2010-08-25

We just implemented "user" quotas inside an AD domain. When we view the quotas from System Manager 1.1R1 we see in the display 2 lines for every line in the quota file. Here is a snippet of the quota file:

#Auto-generated by setup Thu Jun 11 16:40:19 GMT 2009
#Quota Target      Type              disk    files    thold    sdisk    sfile

anderdc    user@/vol/home1    10485760K    -    -    2097152K    -

Attached is a snippet of the display in System Manager.

I'm trying to understand what it's doing and at the same time want to explain it to the customer.

Any help would be great.

Thanks.

Kirt -

First off, 'atk' and 'ATK' are different in WAFL but not in the Windows world. Second, if you notice that all the 'atk' quotas are off, but the 'ATK' quotas are on.

System Manager merges quota report and the quota file. If you did a quota report CLI command, I bet you see "ATK/user", but since the quota file has QUOTA_TARGET_DOMAIN atk, it will show, "atk/user". I suggest that the QUTOA_TARGET_DOMAIN line be changed to: QUTOA_TARGET_DOMAIN ATK. Turn quotas off and on for the volume and I think System Manager will not have duplicates.

Please let me know what happens.

Regards,

Thanks, I'll be sure and make the change in the quota file and let you know of the results.

Thanks.
