In addition, you also can specify that users can exceed their quota limit. Enabling quotas
and not limiting disk space use is useful when you do not want to deny users access to a
volume, but want to track disk space use on a per-user basis. You can also specify whether
or not to log an event when users exceed either their quota warning level or their quota
limit.
When you enable disk quotas for a volume, volume usage is automatically tracked from
that point forward, but existing volume users have no disk quotas applied to them. You can
apply disk quotas to existing volume users by adding new quota entries on the Quota
Entries page.
Disk Quotas Page - Quota Entries
When you enable disk quotas on a volume, every user's disk volume usage is monitored
and treated differently depending on the quota management settings for the specific user.
For example, users who have write access to the volume and who have not exceeded their
quota limit can store data on the volume. The first time a user writes data to a
quota-enabled volume, default values for the disk space limit and the warning level are
automatically assigned by the quota system.

The Quota Entries page allows you to add, delete, or configure disk quotas for any server
appliance user. Quotas are managed using the Object/Task Selector, which has the
following columns:
n
Logon Name - This column displays the logon name of each user with registered access
to the server appliance.
n
Status - This column indicates whether or not the user has exceeded the assigned quota
limit.
n
Amount Used - This column indicates the amount of disk space currently being used
