Qouta support as implemented in the kernel is what I need inside of a vserver. However the vserver itself creates a need for an additional quota type, the context quota which I believe an adequate solution was provided for. My main concern and the reason for my original post was that there were many who did not like the solution that was provided for whatever reason. I wanted to state support for such a solution and a move in the right direction. However, when I did this I feel that it was misunderstood, and led to a number of comments that made me wonder if I had not understood the new capability. I now once again think that I understand the capabilities and that they will meet my needs. I am left with one question, does the context quota require disk space to be guaranteed to that user?
