===============
|
||||
|
||||
Quota subsystem allows system administrator to set limits on used space and
|
||||
number of used inodes (inode is a filesystem structure which is associated
|
||||
with each file or directory) for users and/or groups. For both used space and
|
||||
number of used inodes there are actually two limits. The first one is called
|
||||
softlimit and the second one hardlimit. An user can never exceed a hardlimit
|
||||
for any resource. User is allowed to exceed softlimit but only for limited
|
||||
period of time. This period is called "grace period" or "grace time". When
|
||||
grace time is over, user is not able to allocate more space/inodes until he
|
||||
frees enough of them to get below softlimit.

filesystem.
