the volume, you can have the disk quota system log a system event

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 for new users from that point on. However, existing volume users have no disk quotas applied to them. You can apply disk quotas to existing volume users by adding new quota entries in the Quota Entries window.

Quota Management

When you enable disk quotas on a volume, users with write access to the volume 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 disk space limit and warning level are automatically assigned by the quota system.

This page is used to configure default quota values.
