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. This command is not supported on Infinite Volumes. 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.

The following example uses a 7G-compatible command to deactivate quotas on the volume named vol1 which exists on Vserver vs0 .

cluster1::> vserver context vs0
vs0::> quota off vol1
[Job 25] Job is queued: Quota OFF Operation on vserver vs0 volume vol1.
