10.5.2. Updating quotas for projects, users, and share types

Procedure

1. Access the remote shell for the openstackclient pod from your workstation:

   $ oc rsh -n openstack openstackclient

2. Use the following commands to update quotas:

   • Update quotas for all users in a project:

     $ openstack share quota set <project_id> \
       [--shares <share_quota> \
       --gigabytes <gigabytes_quota> \
       …]

     • Replace <project_id> with the project ID. This value must be the project ID, not the project name.
     • Replace <share_quota> with the total number of shares you want to set as the quota for the project.
     • Replace <gigabytes_quota> with the total size in GB that you want to allocate for all shares in the project.

   • Update quotas for a specific user in a project:

     $ openstack share quota set <project_id> \
       --user <user_id> \
       [--shares <share_quota> \
       --gigabytes <gigabytes_quota> \
       …]

     • Replace <user_id> with the user ID. The value must be the user ID, not the username.
     • Replace <share_quota> with the total number of shares you want to set as the quota for the user in the project.
     • Replace <gigabytes_quota> with the total size in GB that you want to allocate for the user’s shares in the project.

   • Update quotas for all users who use a specific share type:

     $ openstack share quota set <project_id> \
       --share-type <share_type> \
       [--shares <share_quota>
       --gigabytes <gigabytes_quota> \
       …]

     • Replace <share_type> with the share type you want to apply the quota to.
     • Replace <share_quota> with the total number of shares you want to set as the quota for the share type.
     • Replace <gigabytes_quota> with the total size in GB that you want to allocate for the shares that are that share type in the project.

Verification

1. The openstack share quota set command does not produce any output. Use the openstack share quota show command to verify that a quota was successfully updated.

2. Exit the openstackclient pod:

   $ exit
