[Gluster-devel] Object Quotas

[Prashanth Pai]

It would be good to expose the object count (dir and file separate) to client via a virtual xattr. I have a usecase to know the number of files without even having to set/use quota.

The command "list-objects" and "remove-objects" is confusing. What it really does is something like "list-object-limit" and "remove-object-limit". 

Thanks.
