Base object type 'quota' is defined in GN4Base.xsd (with its corresponding class Schema.Class.quotaObj).

A quota is a configuration object specifying a maximum number of objects and a maximum individual and total size for each of three types of size.

Each maximum value is optional: when set to zero is ignored.

Partitions can be associated with a quota, setting in this way the maximum nunber of objects and/or the maximum sizes for the objects belonging to the partition.

Quota is checked when an object is created or modified: a QuotaException is thrown if any of the quota limits are exceeded (maximum number of objects in the partition, maximum size, maximum total size in the partition).

Quota management is in the Administrative browser. It is reachable from Folders, Partitions and Quotas. On the Partitions and Quotas pane, in Style, select Quotas.

To create quota, click New on the menu of the Partitions & Quotas pane:
