Allocate Resources to a User (Administrators)
You must have administrator privileges to perform this task.
Use this procedure to assign upper limit resources to users. This is an upper limit, and not a set of reserved resources or quota. If you don't assign upper limits, the user is categorized as unconstrained, meaning the user is only limited by the amount of available resources.
For information on planning users see Plan Domain Users and Resource Allocations. If you completed the I/O Domain Users Worksheet, use the information in the worksheet to complete this procedure. See Domain Users Worksheet.
