Audit trail will tell you if users are doing this :P Basically, what you want is a -strict- directory quota, where users are unable to select the quota ID the directory is placed under. i.e. it is entirely admin controlled, and users can't place different directories under different quota IDs. We can do this, but we need and explicit description of the behaviour your require, and how it differs from the existing "directory quota via project quotas" mechanism that people currently use. i.e. there are two very different use cases for "directory quotas" here, and users are going to need to know which one to select for their intended us. > Yup, if mount option could be introduced to make this case work, > that will be nice. That's maybe ten lines of code. I expect that the documentation of the use cases and the differences in behaviour between the two modes of behaviour will be a couple of hundred lines at least...
