A qtree is similar in concept to a partition. It creates a subset of a volume to which a quota can be applied to limit its size. As a special case, a qtree can be the entire volume. A qtree is more flexible than a partition because you can change the size of a qtree at any time.
In addition to a quota, a qtree possesses a few other properties.
A qtree enables you to apply attributes such as oplocks and security style to a subset of files and directories rather than to an entire volume.
Single files can be moved across a qtree without moving the data blocks. Directories cannot be moved across a qtree. However, since most clients use recursion to move the children of directories, the actual observed behavior is that directories are copied and files are then moved.
Qtrees represent the third level at which filer storage can be partitioned. Disks are organized into aggregates which provides pools of storage. In each aggregate, one or more flexible volumes can be created. Traditional volumes may also be created directly without the previous creation of an aggregate. Each volume contains a file system. Finally, the volume can be divided into qtrees.
If there are files and directories in a volume that do not belong to any qtrees you create, the filer considers them to be in qtree 0. Qtree 0 can take on the same types of attributes as any other qtrees.
You can use any qtree command whether or not quotas are enabled on your filer.
A qtree can be created only in the root directory of a volume. By default, a qtree has the same security style as the root directory of the volume and oplocks are enabled. The root directory of a volume, by default, uses the unix security style.
When you create a qtree, you can optionally specify the file permission bits of the qtree using the mode option. The format of the mode option is similar to UNIX permission bits: 0755 gives read/write/execute permissions to owner and read/execute to group and other users. It consists of 4 octal digits derived by adding up bits 4, 2, and 1. Omitted digits are assumed to be zeros. The first digit selects the set user ID (4), set group ID
To delete a qtree, remove it from a client as you would any directory. There is a limit of 4994 qtrees per volume.
If you do not specify the name in the "qtree" command, the attributes for all quota trees on the filer are displayed.
The qtree oplocks command enables or disables oplocks for files and directories in a qtree or in a volume. If name is the path name to a qtree, the attribute applies to files and directories in the specified qtree. The path name to a quota tree does not need to end with a slash. If name is the path name to a volume, the attribute applies to those files and directories in qtree 0. The path name to a volume must end with a slash.
If the cifs.oplocks.enable option is off, oplocks are not sent even if you enable the oplocks on a per-quota-tree basis with the qtree oplocks command. The cifs.oplocks.enable option is enabled by default.
If you do not specify enable or disable in the qtree oplocks command, the oplock attribute for name is displayed.
The qtree security command changes the security style for files and directories. Security style means the method the filer uses to determine whether a user has access to a file. If name is the path name to a qtree, the security style applies to the files and directories in the specified qtree. The path name to a qtree does not need to end with a slash. If name is a path name to a volume, the security style applies to those directories and files in qtree 0. Any new qtree you create inherits the security style from qtree 0 by default. The path name to a volume must end with a slash.
The security style can be one of the following values:
The qtree status command displays the attributes of all quota trees for volume name on the filer. It displays the containing volume, the tree name, the security style, oplock status, and whether the qtree is snapmirrored or not. The "-i" flag will add an "ID" column which displays the "tree id" - an integer used to identify the qtree in various syslog messages. If vfilers are licensed, the "-v" flag can be used to display the owning vfiler for each qtree.
If you do not specify the name in the "qtree status" command, the attributes for all quota trees on the filer are displayed.
The qtree stats command displays a count of the number NFS/CIFS operations caused by user accesses to files in quota trees. The filer maintains counters for each quota tree in each of the filer's volumes. The counters are non-persistent.
The "-z" flag can be used to reset the counters.
The values displayed correspond to the operations on qtrees since the volume (in which the qtrees exist) was created or since it was made online on the filer via either a "vol online" command or a filer reboot, or since the counters were last reset, whichever occured most recently.
If you do not specify the name in the "qtree stats" command, the statistics for all quota trees on the filer are displayed. Otherwise, statistics for quota trees in volume name are displayed.
Similarly, if you do not specify the name with the "-z" flag, the counters for all quota trees on all volumes is reset.
