Abstract: A system and method for adaptive data placement in a distributed file system is provided. Upon creation of a new subdirectory, a first heuristic procedure is formed to determine whether the newly created subdirectory should be created locally or on a remote flexible volume. Should it be determination be made to create or store the subdirectory on a remote flexible volume, a second heuristic procedure determines which of a plurality of flexible volumes should store the newly created subdirectory.

Abstract: Methods, non-transitory machine readable media, and computing devices that more efficiently and effectively manage storage quota enforcement are disclosed. With this technology, a quota ticket comprising a tally generation number (TGN) and a local allowed usage amount (AUA) are obtained. The local AUA comprises a portion of a global AUA associated with a quota rule. The local AUA is increased following receipt of another portion of the global AUA in a response from a cluster peer, when another TGN in the response matches the TGN and the local AUA is insufficient to execute a received storage operation associated with the quota rule. The local AUA is decreased by an amount corresponding to, and following execution of, the storage operation, when the increased local AUA is sufficient to execute the storage operation.

Abstract: A system and method for implementing a quota system in a distributed file system is provided. Each node manages a quota database tracking available quota for the node. Should additional quota be required, a node queries a remote node to obtain a lock over the remote quota database. The additional quota is shifted and remaining free quota is reallocated between the local and remote nodes.
