quotagroup create

--name NAME

A unique name for the quota group.

--tenant-id ID

Specify a tenant for the quota group. If not specified, the default tenant is used.

--enable-email-providers

Allows querying providers for email addresses used to send email notifications when a quota group limit is exceeded. By default, the querying is allowed.

--disable-email-providers

Prohibits querying providers for email addresses used to send email notifications when a quota group limit is exceeded.

--soft-limit LIMIT

The soft limit of capacity usage.

When this limit is reached, a notification email is sent, and the grace period countdown commences. Writes are blocked only after the grace period expires.

Specify LIMIT as a number followed by units of measure, for example: --soft-limit 1gb

If not specified, no soft limit is applied.

--soft-limit-inodes LIMIT

The soft limit on the number of directories and unique files that can be created in the paths of the group's member quotas.

When this limit is reached, a notification email is sent, and the grace period countdown commences. Writes are blocked only after the grace period expires.

NOTE: A file with multiple hardlinks is counted only once.

--grace-period PERIOD

A period during which writes to the member quota directories are not blocked although a soft limit has been exceeded. 

If the grace period is not set, exceeding a soft limit does not cause blocking of further writes to the member quota directories. 

Specify PERIOD as follows:

• As the number of time units followed by a time unit letter, for example: 10d, 10h, 10m, 10s.

• The value is case-sensitive, entering 10D or 10H will return an error.

• In the format [DD] [HH:[MM:]]ss. For example:

  • To specify 30 days, 20 hours, 15 minutes and 10 seconds: --grace-period 30 20:15:10.

  • To specify 18 hours: --grace-period 18:00.

  • To specify 7 days: --grace-period 7d

--hard-limit LIMIT

The limit of capacity usage above which no further writes are allowed.

When the hard limit is reached, the HARD_EXCEEDED alarm is raised.

Specify LIMIT as an integer followed by a unit of measure (without a space in between). Valid units are:

• Base 0: KB, MB, GB, TB, PB, EB,

• Base2: KiB, MiB, GiB, TiB, PiB, EiB

The units are case-insensitive. For example, 4gb is valid. 

If not specified, no hard limit is applied.

--hard-limit-inodes LIMIT

The limit on the number of directories and unique files that can be created in the member quota directories, above which no further writes are allowed.

NOTE: A file with multiple hardlinks is counted only once.

Specify LIMIT as an integer.

--is-user-quota

Specify this option if you want to enable user and/or group quotas on the member quota directories.

If this option is specified, you can set more granular limits for the member quota directories as follows:

• Configure default user and group quota rules using the --default-user-quota and --default-group-quota options.

• Configure individual quota rules for particular users and/or groups using a set of userquota * commands.

--default-user-quota LIMITS

This option is used together with --is-user-quota to define default quota rules that will apply to any user for which no individual quota is set. Note that if both default quota rules and individual quotas are defined, the individual quotas override the default ones.

Specify LIMITS as a comma-separated list of options in single quotes.

For example: --default-user-quota 'soft_limit=4gb,hard_limit=20gb,soft_limit_inodes=600,hard_limit_inodes=9000,grace_period=00:10:00'

--default-group-quota LIMITS

This option is used together with --is-user-quota to define default quota rules that will apply to any group for which no individual quota is set. Note that if both default quota rules and individual quotas are defined, the individual quotas override the default ones.

Specify LIMITS as a string of limits in single quotes.

For example: --default-group-quota 'soft_limit=4gb,hard_limit=20gb,soft_limit_inodes=600,hard_limit_inodes=9000,grace_period=00:10:00'
