Where do I find qtrees in System Manager?
You can use the Qtrees window in System Manager to view the volume that contains the qtree; the name, security style, and status of the qtree; and the oplocks status. A qtree is a logically defined file system that can exist as a special subdirectory of the root directory within a FlexVol volume. You can create up to 4995 qtrees per volume.
What happens when I delete a qtree on my computer?
You can delete a qtree and reclaim the disk space it uses within a volume by using System Manager. When you delete a qtree, all quotas applicable to that qtree are no longer applied by Data ONTAP.
Is there a limit to the number of qtrees you can create?
There is no maximum limit for the storage system as a whole. You can create qtrees for managing and partitioning your data within the volume. Qtrees are available only for FlexVol volumes.
Is the security style of a qtree the same as the root directory?
Storage systems running Data ONTAP operating system supports different types of security styles for a storage object. By default, the security style of a qtree is the same as that for the root directory of the volume.
How to obtain the junction path of a qtree?
You need to know the junction path of the volume to obtain the junction path or namespace path of the qtree. Use the vserver volume junction-path command to obtain the junction path of a volume. From the above output, the volume’s junction path is /vol1.
What to do when you delete a qtree?
You can delete a qtree and reclaim the disk space it uses within a volume by using System Manager. When you delete a qtree, all quotas applicable to that qtree are no longer applied by Data ONTAP. You can use System Manager to modify the properties of a qtree, such as the security style, enable or disable opportunistic locks (oplocks),
Is there a maximum number of qtrees you can create?
A qtree is a logically defined file system that can exist as a special subdirectory of the root directory within an internal volume. You can create up to 4,995 qtrees per internal volume. There is no maximum for the storage system as a whole. In general, qtrees are similar to internal volumes.
Do you end the name of a qtree with a slash?
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.
