If what follows is in the manual or is a FAQ, then just point me in the
direction...
Executive summary: Is there an easy way (variant of "quota report"
perhaps?) to discover which users are over-quota?
Detail:
We are beginning to migrate our home directories (15K-20K of them) from
Solaris to NetApp. Quotas are a vital part of the control of these
directories.
Under Solaris (trad. UNIX), each user has an explicit quota. While this
is possible under NetApp, it seems far more sensible to use default quotas
where possible (and the documentation encourages this).
We have set up some reasonable default quotas, and are using rsync
(thanks, folk!) to get the user files prepared in the future NetApp
location: transferred (from 20+ volumes across three Solaris fileservers)
and kept in sync.
Naturally a few of our users have more data than our NetApp default
quotas. What we simply want to do is identify these exceptions so we can
apply explicit quotas. We will, if possible, adjust the defaults so that
the number of exceptions, from our 20K user-base, is reasonably small.
Under Solaris etc., the output from its "repquota" command was easily
eyeball-able (I know, no such word!) for such exceptions: "+" and expiry
times.
Is there a variant of NetApp's "quota report" that either restricts output
to over-quota users, or has a field indicating over-quota, or similar?
Or is the NetApp convention simply to cobble together a bit of awk/perl to
extract those lines (from the total 20K) in which "Used" exceeds "Limit"?
Thanks in advance.
