VServer Context Quota
Virtual Server per Context Quota Support
This is a set of additions (patches, tools) to the
virtual private servers
and security contexts by
Jacques Gélinas (make sure to
visit his pages,
and/or have a look at the
mailing list archive, kept by
Paul Sladen, if
you are interested) and the
linux quota-tools.
This is the first attempt to add per context quota support to the linux
kernel vserver project (new context, and per-context user/group quota),
so remember: THIS IS NOT CONSIDERED STABLE AT ALL.
Nevertheless it seems to work as expected, at least in my tests.
Curious how it works?
