RN104 Lacking some basic features?
I purchased a RN104 early in December so I could off load SMB shared from a dedicated machine, more for the energy saving (220kwh/m). The transition has gone fairly smoothly new disks for the nas (...
It seems to me that disk usage per share would be simple with ext, so I don't really see the connection to share security mode. At the very least, it would be simple to have a tool which analyzed disk usage and reported the results.
btrfs is a different matter though. I believe that btrfs quotas need to be enabled just to get a usage breakdown (the tricky part is apparently not only the quota itself, it is also accurately tracking space usage with CoW). At least that is the implication here: http://lwn.net/Articles/579009/ Figuring out how to apply a quota in a meaningful way isn't obvious with btrfs generally, but I think the usage of btrfs in ReadyNAS is structured enough that it could be usefully applied at the share level.
I'd also like to see it added as soon as it is judged to be stable. It'd be very helpful to get a more detailed analysis of space usage - perhaps as a maintenance task, with emailing results.
