We use OnTap 9.x and all users have personal shares. We have a use case to make some of these personal share's read-only. Aside from actually setting the read-only attribute on the folders/files therine is there any method to mark a personal share as read-only at the Ontap side?

I'm not trying to offer an answer, but I'd move such shares to S3 as buckets. You'd need a curator, but this is what people often want for such buckets (e.g. for departed employees, a storage or some departmental admin may be in charge, which seems more suitable for that use case, IMO). This may or may not be better - it depends on the requirements and environment.
