20.8.4.1 To Specify a Default User Quota

A default quota applies to users who do not have individual quotas set in their LDAP entries. The process consists of two steps: 1) Specifying a user default quota and 2) Specifying which users are bound to the default quota. The following examples show how to set default user quotas. Refer to Chapter 3, Messaging Server Configuration, in Sun Java System Messaging Server 6.3 Administration Reference for detailed parameter information.

To specify a default user disk quota for message size in bytes:

configutil -o store.defaultmailboxquota -v [ -1 | number ]

where -1 indicates no quota (unlimited message usage) and number indicates a number of bytes.

To specify a default user quota for total number of messages:

configutil -o store.defaultmessagequota -v [ -1 | number ]

where -1 indicates no quota (unlimited messages) and number indicates the number of messages.

To specify the default quota for specific users:

Set the mailQuota attribute to -2 in the user entries that use the default message store quota. Note that if mailQuotais not specified, the system default quota is used.
