Re: [cpx] Quotas (was Separation of Roles)



Hello Ric,

You have it backwards. A "Domain Admin" is not "affected" by it's end users but rather the other way around. If you allocate 1000MBs disk quota for the Domain Admin then the sum total quota for ALL end users managed by said Domain Admin would be 1000MBs.

HTH's

 And finally, how does the quota allocation work?  I've been
 experimenting and it isn't clear whether the Domain Admin quota is
 affected at all by the user quota allocations.


    It isn't, but you can't allocate more space to end users (added
together) than the quota for the DA (if I remember right).




Hmm, now that seems odd. So the "real" quota would then be twice the Domain Admin quota? I don't know how other people do this but I rarely allocate that much filespace to the email-only users attached to a domain account.

It would be more useful if the Domain Admin quota would automagically readjust anytime a user quota is modified (or a new user is attached to the domain) so that the total quota for all domain-associated accounts would not exceed the original Domain Admin quota.

Or perhaps CPX could maintain a special field (associated with the domain?) for the "total user quota"?

I guess "group" quotas would be nice too, but last I heard, there was some sort of issue with group quotas on the VPS platform.

Is there anything in the development queue that would support better handling of domain quotas?
