Quota information and notification
Hi,
I am looking to apply notification alert on quota utilization. Is there any way in isilon to set a email notification on the individual quotas so that a user who is using the quota can be intimated hey the quota is been using beyond the threshold limit? My Isilon version is v6.5.5.18.
Can we set a quota for a NFS share which already in use and in production? If yes what is the impact on accessing share on host by end users?
Why i am not able to see the files inside the below mentioned directory even though my user id "syyadm" is part of primary wheel groups and in home directory /ifs/home/syyadm? Do i need root access to view the files in the directories?
drwxrwx--- + 3 root wheel 29 Sep 16 2013 .isilon
Thanks,
Bhuvan

Sure, just search for "quota notification" in the PDF manuals or via the WebGUI online help.
When you set quotas for a share in use, don't set hard thresholds at first,
they might be too low...
The QuotaScan job will run for a while, usually with little impact.
Once finished, real the actual usage and set the thresholds.
You have an ACL (access control list) set on the .isilon dir,
indicated by the + sign. The shown UNIX permissions
are therefor in effect as such, they are a "display approximation"
to the more complex ACL settings. Check with
ls -led .isilon
(BTW no idea what this directory is, better leave it alone)
