Hi Vishwanath.krishnappa@anz.com,

There is nothing you can do explicitly from an Mtree perspective.

However, depending upon how you write to this Mtree, i.e. via CIFS/VTL/NFS/DDBoost, and the version of DDOS, then you could potentially:

- If CIFS is used, modify the share to either restrict to one IP address that you know will not write (or perhaps a dummy IP) or modify the maximum connections to 0.

- If NFS is used, modify the share to be read only.

- If VTL is used, modify the tapes in question to read only by modifying the writeprotect option.

- If DDBoost is used, remove the client from the allowed IP list, or implement a hard quota.

cheers, Rich.
