Enabling User/Group Quota on a Virtual Private Server (VPS)

To enable user/group quota on a virtual private server:

Edit the configuration file to set the parameter QUOTAUGIDLIMIT that controls the second-level disk quota. The two instances when you can set the parameter is:

If you are setting the parameter before the creation of the virtual private server:

Go to the location of the virtual private server configuration file. /etc/sysconfig/vz-scripts

To enable disk quota set the value of QUOTAUGIDLIMIT to a positive value, in the configuration file. For example: QUOTAUGIDLIMIT=”150″

The default value of the parameter is zero. Setting the value of the parameter to zero disables user/group quotas.

Note: Ensure that you use this configuration file when creating the virtual private server.
