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

[Artyom Lukianov]

Hi Soumya,

   1. Yes, you correct a quota is shared among all quota consumers.
   2. No, it not possible, the single possibility as you said is to create
   a separate quota for each user. I believe it was designed to make quota for
   group of users at first place, but I think it can be a good RFE :)

Best Regards
