--- Doc Text *updated* ---
Enabling the Quota feature on Red Hat Storage version 3 does not create parent GFID extended attributes on existing data. The parent GFID extended attributes are used to construct the absolute path (from the file to the volume root) for nameless lookup operations on files. As NFS heavily relies on nameless lookup operations, quota enforcement through NFS would be inconsistent if quota is enabled on a volume with existing data as the information about the parent directories is not available. This issue is not observed if quota is enabled on Red Hat Storage version 2.1 before upgrading to Red Hat Storage 3 as Red Hat Storage 2.1 creates the parent GFID extended attributes on existing data as well.

Workaround: Enable the Quota feature on Red Hat Storage version 2.1 and then upgrade to Red Hat Storage version 3.0.
