Revisiting this now, I see there is some basic documentation for GlusterFS 11 simple-quota in its README.md:
https://github.com/gluster/glusterfs/tree/devel/xlators/features/simple-quota Has anyone set up simple quotas yet? I don't understand the documentation. Are we supposed to be setting the namespace and the quota on the FUSE mountpoint or on the backend brick? And I get the general idea of the "helper" script, but it would be good for a bit more documentation around it to understand how we apply it to our environments. Thank you!
