Specifying whether the df command will report numbers based on quotas for the fileset

You can specify (when quotas are enforced for a fileset) whether the df command will report numbers based on the quotas for the fileset and not for the total file system. If ignoreReplicationOnStatfs is enabled, df command on fileset output ignores data replication factor.

To do so, use the --filesetdf | --nofilesetdf option on either the mmchfs command or the mmcrfs command. This option affects the df command behavior only on Linux® nodes.

If quota is disabled and filesetdf is enabled in IBM Storage Scale 5.1.1 or later with file system version 5.1.1 or later, then the df command reports inode space capacity and inode usage at the independent fileset-level. However, the df command reports the block space at the file system-level because the block space is shared with the whole file system.

Note: If quota is enabled, then no behavior change for df command with filesetdf enabled, regardless of the cluster and file system versions.

For more information, see mmchfs command and mmcrfs command.
