group

group

This parameter specifies the target group to which the group quota policy rule applies. This parameter takes a group name or identifier. This parameter is only valid for the POST operation of a group quota policy rule. The POST operation will fail with an appropriate error if this parameter is used as an input to create a user or a tree quota policy rule. This input parameter for POST takes either a group name or a group identifier, but not both. For default quota rules, the group name must be chosen and should be specified as "". For explicit group quota rules, this parameter can contain a UNIX group name or a UNIX group identifier.

qtree

qtree

This parameter specifies the target qtree to which the user/group/tree quota policy rule applies. For a user/group quota policy rule at qtree level, this parameter takes a qtree name and is valid in GET or POST. For a user/group quota policy rule at volume level, this parameter is not valid in GET or POST. For a tree quota policy rule, this parameter is mandatory and is valid in both POST and GET. For a default tree quota policy rule, this parameter needs to be specified as "". For a tree quota policy rule at qtree level, this parameter takes a qtree name and is valid in GET or POST.

space

svm

svm

SVM, applies only to SVM-scoped objects.

type

string

This parameter specifies the quota policy rule type. This is required in POST only and can take either one of the "user", "group" or "tree" values.

user_mapping

boolean

This parameter enables user mapping for user quota policy rules. This is valid in POST or PATCH for user quota policy rules only.

users

array[users]

This parameter specifies the target user to which the user quota policy rule applies. This parameter takes single or multiple user names or identifiers. This parameter is valid only for the POST operation of a user quota policy rule. If this parameter is used as an input to create a group or a tree quota policy rule, the POST operation will fail with an appropriate error. For POST, this input parameter takes either a user name or a user identifier, not both. For default quota rules, the user name must be chosen and specified as "". For explicit user quota rules, this parameter can indicate either a user name or user identifier. The user name can be a UNIX user name or a Windows user name. If a name contains a space, enclose the entire value in quotes. A UNIX user name cannot include a backslash () or an @ sign; user names with these characters are treated as Windows names. The user identifer can be a UNIX user identifier or a Windows security identifier. For multi-user quota, this parameter can contain multiple user targets separated by a comma.

uuid

string

Unique identifier for the quota policy rule. This field is generated when the quota policy rule is created.
