You could use Filsystem quotas but I strongly suggest against it as it will probably bring about database corruption.
A better solution would be to monitor the space being allocated so you can add storage as required.

Is there a way to limit the size that an individual database can take up?
My understanding is that all your databases go into a file system which is your ‘catalog cluster’.
But all the databases can grow until that filesystem is full.
Is there a way to limit how big a database can be? Can you allocated space when the database is set up so you can say db1 can only be 100 MB?
Thank you!
