How can I disable quotas when using provisioning manager ?

Need some help with provisioning manager,

I need to build a flexvol with a bunch of qtree's but I don't want quotas to be enabled,

dfpm dataset create dataset -v Default -r vfiler1 share1

dfpm dataset provision -n qtree1 -s 10g share1

dfpm dataset provision -n qtree2 -s 10g share1

dfpm dataset provision -n qtree3 -s 10g share1

the result is that I get a flexvol 'share1' with a total size of 30GB, 3 qtree's with hard quotas enforced at 10GB each.

How can I get provisioning manager to increase the flexvol size when I add a new qtree to the dataset but not enforce a quota ?

Provisioning manager always sets hard quota limits on the Qtress created. There is no option to change it. If you want to change it, you can write a small script and put it in the post provisioning script path.

Ouotas are not monitored for conformance, hence your dataset will remain conformant.

warm regards,
