Global and per group disk quota [$40]

[hoerup]

It would be nice if I can set a disk quota per group (eg tot total amount of disk space used by group may not exceed xx GB) and a global MAX usage to prevent the disk form filling completely.

Also: group based default quota values.

Example: member's of the admin group all have 10GB space by default, normal users only have 5GB by default.

also would love a group quota.

I also would love to be able to set storage limits for groups as a whole.

For example:
Company A is limited to 30GBs
Company A has 4 normal users and one group admin

The group admin should be able to assign storage limit to each of the groups normal users up to 30 GBs

Thank you!

The request for group quotas is quite popular in the forums; see for example [1] and [2].

Is it doable? Something for the next mile stone?
Would be nice to hear from the dev folks :-)

Thanks,

yes .. how can it be when a groupadmin can overwrite the limits which is set by admin ?
please fix this because it is near impossible to provide a customer owncloud with his own groupadmin and limited space.

thanks, chris

No one is assigned... No milestone... ;(

Push up.

If nobody volunteers to code it or is willing to pay for someone to develop it, it won't get done. Hard facts.

Been waiting to see this get fixed. I view this as a bug rather than a feature request because the logic of quotas assignment should follow this.

System admin assigns storage quota to group admin (1GB) > group admin cannot change quota the system admin gave him > group admin can only give out to group users the limit of what the group admin was assigned by system admin(1GB).

It would be extremely useful to have the option of giving a group a set amount of storage that any of the users of that group can use. When the cloud service is used for teams, this quota structure makes more sense.

i'm waiting for that feature to, i don't really understand the logic of a group subadmin who can overrule the group quota for a user. In my opinion the subadmin can only change the quota for a user in his group between 0 and the quota set by the admin.

Let's talk about Folder's quota, instead of Group's quota. This is because if a user belongs to several groups, how does the system manage the users maximum quota? which group(s) do an uploaded file belong to, and which one it's size is added to?

So creating something like a 'Group Folder' or 'Project Folder' with it's own quota, might help on accounting Group used space, and making it independent from each individual user's quota (or not, but individual stored filesize can be calculated).
