Hi,



When trying to increase the quota on a volume I accidentally entered a
negative value after the =96max flag. This ended up deleting all the conten=
ts
of the directory. I don=92t know if this is technically a bug but it=92s a
feature I could do without. :D



The command I ran was

Fs setquota =96p  \\afs\rest_of _path -max
-50000<file:///\\afs\rest_of%20_path%20-max%20-50000>



Thanks,
