3.1.2 Matrix Server Administration Guide

Chapter 6: Configure Dynamic Volumes 76

If you enable quotas, you can set the default quota for users and groups

on that filesystem. If you do not want a default limit, click “Unlimited.”

To assign a limit, click “Limit” and then specify the appropriate size in

either kilobyes, megabytes, gigabytes, or terabytes. The defaults are

rounded down to the nearest filesystem block. The default quota applies

to all users and groups; however, you can change the quota for a specific

user or group. See Chapter 8, “Manage Filesystem Quotas” on page 120

for more information.

Available Subdevices: The display includes all imported subdevices that

are not currently in use by another volume and that do not have a

filesystem in place. The subdevices that you select are used in the order in

which they appear on the list. Use the arrow keys to reorder, one-at-a-

time, the appropriate subdevices and then highlight those subdevices.

Striping: If you want this volume to use striping, check the “Enable

striping” checkbox and then select the size of the stripe. Although the

default stripe size of 64KB should be adequate for most applications and

hardware configurations, you may need to use a different stripe size for

your particular circumstances.

Click either OK or Apply to create the volume. (Apply keeps the window

open, allowing you to create additional dynamic volumes.)
