Hi All,
I think my problem was that I had quotas set at multiple levels of a
subtree, and maybe some were conflicting. (E.g. Parent said quota=1GB,
child said quota=200GB.) I could not reproduce the problem, but setting
quotas only on the user's subdirectory and not elsewhere along the way
to the root fixed the problem. :)
I'm actually using the kernel cephfs for timemacine, plus a .plist
file to tell Time Machine not to use too much space. There is an
example here:

For windows, I don't know of a way to give it a hint with a file, so
I'm using cephfs quotas.
As for AFP, there are a few reasons I decided not to use it. We
already have an Samba setup with authentication. SMB time machine only
works with macOS 10.12 and newer, so if there were time and we had more
older clients netatalk would make sense also. Supposedly AFP is going
away someday:

Thanks for the responses!
Chad.
