Migrate share quota database

Hi ,

Is it possible to move our existing shares/quota treee hosted on a Data mover to a VDM  on  the same data-mover without losing quota tree  information ?

Sure – all treequota’s and user quota’s are stored inside the file system

So if you umount the fs on the physical data mover and mount it on the VDM they will move with the file system.

If you do you a CIFS server you would also have to move it first – just ask customer service for the procedure

You should also check your NFS experts if they need adjusting

Thanks Rainer . Great help .

Tested it out and as you said got the quota info is preserved in the FS and got it showing after mounting on the VDM.
