Are there plans for supporting the user and group quotas that Solaris ZFS now supports as of Solaris 10 11/09?

I'm testing with samba 3.3.7, compiled with '--with-quotas' that works with UFS quotas. Windows clients see the overall ZFS file system usage and capacity, not the user's personal usage and space. One can use 'quota -v' to check a user's zfs quota; the same command one uses for UFS quotas. I highly suspect they just changed the quota command to support both and similar changes would be necessary to the quota support in samba.

I also tried using the 'get quota command', but it's not working for me. I wonder if it's because samba was compiled with '--with-quotas'.

Any ideas?

What is the difference in the quota API for ZFS ? We need
someone to donate quota supporting code for that API and I'll
add it for 3.5.0.

Jeremy.

I have looked around for the ZFS API, but it appears like Sun hasn't released it; at least not into the wild. Perhaps those in the 'Sun Developer' camp have access to such things.

If there is a defined relationship between Sun and samba, perhaps there is a contact that could put this on their todo list or pony up the needed information.

Meanwhile, I have submitted a request to Sun, but I wouldn't bet that would come of anything anytime soon.

thank you
