You can use Storage Manager create, edit, and delete Qtrees.
Creating qtrees
Qtrees enable you to manage and partition your data within a volume. You can use the Create Qtree dialog box in Storage Manager to add a new qtree to a volume on your storage system.
Deleting qtrees
You can delete a qtree and reclaim the disk space that the qtree uses within a volume by using Storage Manager. When you delete a qtree, all of the quotas that are applicable to that qtree are no longer applied by ONTAP.
Editing qtrees
You can use Storage Manager to modify the properties of a qtree such as the security style and assign a new or existing export policy.
Assigning export policies to qtrees
Instead of exporting an entire volume, you can export a specific qtree on a volume to make it directly accessible to clients. You can use Storage Manager to export a qtree by assigning an export policy to the qtree. You can assign an export policy to one or more qtrees from the Qtrees window.
Viewing qtree information
You can use the Qtrees window in Storage Manager to view the volume that contains the qtree, the name, security style, and status of the qtree, and the oplocks status.
Qtree options
A qtree is a logically defined file system that can exist as a special subdirectory of the root directory within a FlexVol volume. Qtrees are used to manage and partition data within the volume.
