Consider using a modern mail system. The mail system can handle quotas
much better than a file system.

Hi Darren,
thanks for reply.
E.g., I have mail quota implemented as per-directory quota. I know
this can be solved in another way, but still, I would have to change
many things in my system in order to make it work. And this is quite
easy implementation of mail quota. Now I'm using UFS and ufs quota
support.
Agree, creating ZFS per account would solve my problems, but I can't
use nfsv4 , nor automounter, so I can't export thousand of
filesystems right now.
Thanks.

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death
that
brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to
pass
over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the
inner
eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only
I will remain.

Hi all,
I can not find any instructions on how to set the file quota (i.e.
maximum number of files per filesystem/directory) or directory
quota (maximum size that files in particular directory can
consume) in ZFS.
That is because it doesn't exist.
I understand ZFS has no support for this. Am I right? If I am, are
there any plans to include this in the next releases of
OpenSolaris/Solaris?
Why would you want to do that rather than set a maximum amount of
space
a filesystem, user or group can consume?
What is the real problem you are trying to solve by restricting
the number of files that can be created ?
