A qtree is a special subdirectory of the root directory of a volume.

You can set the following parameters on a qtree:
security style: NTFS (Windows NT file system), UNIX, or mixed
oplocks setting: On or Off
disk space and file limits, as described in Chapter 11, Quotas and Maximum
Number of Files.

A volume has all the properties of a qtree except
It can have qtrees under it.
It has different defaults than a qtree.
Unless expressly mentioned otherwise, whatever applies to qtrees also applies to
volumes.
NOTE: You cannot create a qtree inside another qtree.

You use qtrees to group files that have similar characteristics, much in the way that
you use volumes. However, qtrees are much more flexible than volumes.
