Disk quotas

Disk quotas can be implemented by a system administrator as a way to manage limited storage for users or groups of users. They allow the administrator to fairly balance storage resources so that it is possible to manage finite capacity in a suitable way. An example of disk quotas in use would be, for example, a web hosting provider that allocates a certain amount of disk storage per customer, or to limit certain users from consuming the full resources of the file-system thereby preventing the file-system filling up. When set limits are reached, it is possible to notify the system administrator or user consuming the resources in question, to inform them to take appropriate action.
