The feature set was fairly extensive, they supported volume quotas for users or groups, or "qtree" quotas, which similar to the ZFS quota would limit space for a particular directory and all of its contents regardless of user/group ownership. But all quotas were set in a single flat text file. Anytime you added a new quota, you needed to turn off quotas, then turn them back on, and quota enforcement was disabled while it recalculated space utilization. Like a lot of aspects of the filer, it seemed possibly functional but rather kludgy. I hate kludgy :(. I'd have to go review the documentation to recall the other issues I had with it, quotas were one of the last things we reviewed and I'd about given up taking notes at that point. -- Paul B.
