Hi,

If we have replication enabled on a file, does the size from ls -l or du return 
the actual file size, or the replicated file size (I.e. Twice the actual size)?.

This appears to mean that quotas have to be double what we actually want to 
take account of the replication factor.

Is this correct?

Second part of the question. If a file is transferred to tape (or compressed 
maybe as well), does the file still count against quota, and how much for? As 
on hsm tape its no longer copies=2. Same for a compressed file, does the 
compressed file count as the original or compressed size against quota? I.e. 
Could a user accessing a compressed file suddenly go over quota by accessing 
the file?

Thanks

Simon
