volume quota off

Turn off quotas for volumes

Availability: This command is available to cluster and Vserver administrators at the admin privilege level.

Description​

This command creates a job to deactivate quotas for the specified volume. You can monitor the progress of the job by using the job show and job watch-progress commands.

Parameters​

-vserver <vserver name> - Vserver Name
This specifies the name of the Vserver on which the volume is located.
-volume <volume name> - Volume Name
This specifies the name of the volume on which you are deactivating quotas.
[-foreground [true]] - Foreground Process
This optionally specifies whether the job created for deactivating quotas runs as a foreground process. The default setting is false (that is, the operation runs in the background). When set to true, the command will not return until the job completes.

Examples​

The following example deactivates quotas on the volume named vol1, which exists on Vserver vs0. 

cluster1::> volume quota off -vserver vs0 -volume vol1
[Job 23] Job is queued: Quota OFF Operation on vserver vs0 volume vol1.
