Actually you will get a benefit in that you can set up a callback so that users 
get alerted when they got over a soft quota.

We also set up a fileset quota so that the callback will automatically notify 
users when they exceed their block and file quotas for their fileset as well.

Hope that helps,

Subject: [gpfsug-discuss] File Quotas vs Inode Limits

Note: External Email
________________________________
Hi All,

I'm in process of setting up quota for our users.  We currently have block 
quotas per file set, and an inode limit for each inode space. Our users have 
request more transparency relating to the inode limit as as it is they can't 
see any information.

Are there any disadvantages to implementing file quotas, and increasing the 
inode limits so that they will not be reached?

Michael
