Follow these steps to limit disk space used by a group named service:
1. Decide which group should be limited by a disk quota. In this example, the group
is the owner of /vol/home/user/service. That is, the filer restricts disk usage of
files with the same GID as /vol/home/group/service.
2. Add the following line to the quotas file:
YROKRPHJURXSVHUYLFH JURXS 0 .
Substitute the values you want for 700M and 100K. You can also use the GID of
the group or the name of the group. If you want the restrictions to apply to a vol-
ume other than the root volume, for example, the home volume, enter the
following line:
YROKRPHJURXSVHUYLFH JURXS#YROKRPH 0 .
Substitute the values you want for 700M and 100K.
3. Use the quota on command. If quotas are already on for the home volume,
enter the following commands:
TXRWDRIIKRPH
TXRWDRQKRPH
