Question on quotas and .snapshot

Does anyone know if the .snapshot directories are used when calculating disk usage for quotas or the total allowed drive space?

Thanks :-)



.snapshot isn't in the quota

The "space" in .snapshot doesn't count towards your quota. If I recall correctly, the .snapshot on a NetApp is more of a diff from your current content, so theoretically, it's nearly zero space on the drives most of the time.
