    Manage quota rules

    This page provides instructions for how to manage your quota rules.

    Quota rules enable you to limit the storage space within a volume for specific users and groups.

    You can create four types of quota rules on a NetApp Volumes volume:

    • Individual user quota: applies a storage limit to a specific user accessing a volume.

    • Individual group quota: applies a storage limit for all users within a specific group on a volume.

    • Default user quota: when a default user quota is applied to a volume, it automatically applies a storage limit for all users who access that volume.

    • Default group quota: quota limits are automatically applied to all users within all groups accessing a volume with a default group quota.

    For more information about instructions to manage your quota rules, see the following:
