Limit File Size on ZFS Dataset - ( Not using ulimit ? )

edited Feb 4, 2013 4:30AM in Oracle Solaris ZFS File System (MOSC) 4 commentsAnswered
Hi,
Is there a way to limit the max file size on a zfs dataset without using the ulimit -f command ?

Ideally, we would like to prevent any user writing a file above a "max" limit to a zfs dataset, in order to prevent the dataset filling up.

We cannot use the userquota property as we still need to allow a particular user to create multiple file in the dataset, we just dont want them to go over xGb.

Is this possible ?

I have read the man page, and don't think it is. Would be a nice feature ?

Regards.

Howdy, Stranger!
