Yes, this correct (I think there was some discussion on the mailing list a little while back). The quota is the space used on disk, so if you run compression its the compressed size, tape hsm don't count until you recall them. I assume mcstore is the same, I.e. Only counts on recall, but I haven't tested this.

For a number of years now we have had a GPFS filesystem where we use filesets and set fileset quotas. Data replication is set to one. I understand how that all works. We are creating another GPFS filesystem where we intend to also use filesets and fileset quotas, but set data replication to two. Based on my experience with data replication on a filesystem that doesn’t use filesets, I am expecting that setting data replication to two means that I will need to double the quota for each fileset (i.e. if a group has bought 5 TB of space I’ll need to set their fileset quota to 10 TB) but haven’t found where that is explicitly documented. Is that correct?
