so, i understood is possible, but how?

thank you

i tried renaming the folder like a windows folder, now, in the gui,  i can't see anymore the path, the status and the hard limit. (all fileds are empty)

In the quota list the name still appears like the old name.

Just rename it from Windows like you would rename any directory

The Celerra itself doesn’t care about the name – it tracks it via tree id’s

That’s actually to a neat trick to save some work – create a couple of spare treequota of the desired size and your Windows admins can rename and use them without having to access the Celerra CLI or GUI

For the GUI just press the refresh icon

when i do a rename of the folder pointed by quota...Unisphere stops showing the correct data about quota...i don`t know if is necesary to wait many minutos to became working fine. I undo the change to avoid problems...appears to be an unsupported action renaming the quota folder.

Wait for your comments.

Hi Luciano,

Renaming a treequota is supported – you can even just rename the treequota dir from CIFS or NFS and it will work fine.

It’s possible that UniSphere needs to refresh or re-query to show the correct name – but that doesn’t impact the working of treequotas and file access.

Internally the system doesn’t use the name – it uses the treeid which never changes when you rename it

Try the refresh icon within UniSphere
