Isilon - cut/paste folders between quota protected paths fails.
posted by Julian Firminger on Sept. 8, 2015, 10:25 a.m. (2 days ago)
It's a feature apparently, but I'm wondering if any isi users out there a) have this issue and more importantly b) have a neat solution or hack.
This cluster is OneFS7.1.0.6 (pre zone as directory)

With a quota set on both these paths
pathA = /ifs/A/B/C/source
PathB = /ifs/X/Y/Z
mv PathA PathB does not work.
but
mv PathA/* PathB does (provided there's only files in <source>)

As there is a quota set on both of these locations, I'm told by EMC that OneFS cannot precompute the new quota totals so it wont permit the action.

Has anyone out there come accross this issue and know of a workaround? (other than the obvious "write a script")
