Hi Przemyslaw, Have you looked at the existing quotas?
http://sfdoccentral.symantec.com/sf/5.0/solaris/manpages/vxfs/fsckptadm_ 1m.html#429951 The -r option doesn't delete any checkpoints, it just makes each individual checkpoint 'removable'. Plus, it's been the default since 4.0, so unless you have a really old system, you don't need to specify it. It's the setquotalimit that matters. That is expressed in absolute limit (# of fs blocks). Are you saying basically, yes, that's what you want, just allow it to be relative (90%)? Also note that the hard limit on checkpoints doesn't necessarily remove only the oldest checkpoint when exceeded -- it removes enough removable (again, default) checkpoints starting with the oldest until all checkpoints are below the hardlimit.

Currently we are testing how does it cope with full filesystem. The '-r' option is really usefull (since it removes the oldest storage checkpoint when there is no space) but I miss very much an option which will remove such sckpt when e.g. filesystem reached 90%. Are Symantec's engineers evaluating such option ? It is usefull when you have a lot of filesystems and setting (calculating) quota for each filesystem is time consuming (especially in a dynamic environment).
