EMC Unity - Create User Quota

Summary
Create a new user quota on an EMC Unity storage array.
Description
This task creates a quota on an EMC Unity storage array,either on a file system or on a tree quota on an EMC Unity array. Input Format:
  • EMC Unity Account Name: podName@AccountName. For example: Vblock@Unity_Hybrid
  • User Quota to be created on: To create user quota either on File System or Tree Quota
  • EMC Unity File System: podName@accountName@spName@id@nasServerName@nasServerID@storagePoolName@storagePoolId@fileSystemName@fileSystemID. For example: Default Pod@EmcUnity@SP A@spa@TestNAS@nas_4@pool_7@Pool0@TestFS@fs_14
  • EMC Unity Tree Quota: podName@accountName@spName@id@nasServerName@nasServerID@storagePoolName@storagePoolId@fileSystemName@fileSystemID@path@quotaTreeID. For example: Default Pod@EmcUnity@SP A@spa@TestNAS@nas_4@pool_7@Pool0@TestFS@fs_14@/qtree@treequota_171798691867_1
  • User ID: Valid User ID. For example: 1
  • Soft Limit: Valid Soft Limit-If the quota tree's space usage exceeds the soft limit, the storage system starts to count down based on the specified grace period.The default value 0 means no limitation.
  • Capacity Units: The unit for the Size of the User Quota. For example: 2GB,MB or TB
  • Hard Limit: If the quota tree's space usage exceeds the hard limit, users cannot write to the quota tree.The default value 0 means no limitation.
  • Capacity Units: The unit for the Size of the User Quota. For example: 2GB,MB or TB
