Hi,

First problem : I have an advfs named usr_domain with three filesets
in it. I wanted to set each fileset soft block quota to 250 MB and
the hard block quota to 500 MB. A block is 512 bytes, right ?
So...

chfsets -B 512000 -b 1024000 usr_domain
showfsets usr_domain

The second command shows the quotas at TWICE the size intended !
Can anyone confirm that chfsets uses a block size of 1K ? If so, WHY
? Any why doesn't the man page say what size block it is talking
about ? Or is showfsets the problem ?

Second problem : The docs mention that there is a default grace
period (set grace period to 0 to get default), but I can't find
anywhere in the docs where it says what the default grace period is.
What is the default grace period, and where is this mentioned in the
docs ?

Third problem : I saw mention in this newsgroup of mcopy but can't
find any reference in the docs to this either. Can someone point me
in the right direction ?

Thanks, Martyn Brown (brown_at_lincoln.ac.nz)
