[ovirt-users] Cannot set a quota to limit resources for each user

Hi,

We have a use-case to limit VM resources for each user and were 
following guidelines specified in the admin guide to set quota and limit 
resources for each user [section:  16.8. Using Quota to Limit Resources 
by User]. However looks like that quota is shared by all the users added 
as consumers.

Suppose I have created a quota (say quota1) to limit the storage 
capacity to 100GB for each user. Once I add user1 and user2 as consumers 
to that quota, seems like both users combined are entitled to 100GB. Is 
my understanding correct?

Please let me know if there is any way to configure a single quota which 
could be applied for each user individually (i.e, in the above eg., each 
user should be limited to 100GB storage capacity).

Or is the only way this can be done is by creating separate quota for 
each user [which seems like tedious process and cannot scale]?


Thanks,
Soumya
