Description

  • This article provides step-by-step instructions on how to create a volume and configure quotas using the command-line interface (CLI) in NetApp ONTAP.
  • The procedure involves creating a volume named "vol1" within an aggregate called "aggr1" under the Vserver "vs1" with a size of 100GB.
  • It also covers setting up a quota policy named "quota_policy_vs1_1" for SVM and creating a policy rule that imposes a 50MB hard limit on each user's disk usage within the volume "vol1."
