I think this is a typical requirement of ISP as the server getting backup
are not under the Backup administrators control.

One way to do it is..
1. Create a storage resource dedicate to that client
2. Restrict the volume size to max value you want to restrict for that
client.

The above thing will do below things
1. The jobs will run until they hit the max value.
2. If the job is running and the Max value reached..that perticular job will
simply fail after max time wait.

Is that you needed.
