Modify quota from 'system settings' to custom notification rules via CLI

Question

I have a large number of quotas that need to be changed to custom notification rules.  I am able to modify one that is already set to custom, how do I modify quota notifications from system to custom while adding the new email addresses?  Does this need to be done in multiple steps? I used this to modify an existing custom notification.  isi quota quotas notifications modify --path=/ifs/somepath --type=directory --holdoff=0 --threshold=advisory --condition=exceeded --action-alert=true --action-email-owner=false --action-email-address=emailaddress@somedomain.com

Hello rubikscuke,

You want to make sure that you unlink the quota first prior to modifying them. You also want to make sure you are doing it on the parent and not the child. Once you modify the parent it will filter down to the children. Here is a link to the CLI guide just incase you need it. https://dell.to/3GCl2hC
