Creating quotas

You can create two types of storage quotas to monitor data: accounting quotas and enforcement quotas. Storage quota limits and restrictions can apply to specific users, groups, or directories.

The type of quota that you create depends on your goal.

  • Enforcement quotas monitor and limit disk usage. You can create enforcement quotas that use any combination of hard limits, soft limits, and advisory limits.
    NOTE Enforcement quotas are not recommended for snapshot-tracking quota domains.
  • Accounting quotas monitor, but do not limit, disk usage.
NOTE Before using quota data for analysis or other purposes, verify that no QuotaScan jobs are running.
