Individual quota

SVHO — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 09:41:02 GMT

Hello,

I have been setting individual user quota over the years (the rule is created with one user and then clicked 'Finish'. Once the user is added, you can view the usage of space in the Quota (User defined quota) for that individual.

Today, we added 5 users before clicking 'Next' and 'Finish'. We noticed under the User Defined Quotas, it lists all 5 users on one line under 'User/Group'. So how is this rule being enforced?

Lets say I specified the quota to be 10 GB hard limit. Does this rule enforce 10 GB per user or 10 GB total for all 5 users?. Since the system placed 5 users on one line item, how would I know how much each user have used?
