Hello,

I have simple question - is possible to use quotas in jail(8) environment ?

Yes, it is, although with some restrictions.

You have to enable the disk quotas from the host (have them listed in
host's /etc/fstab).

To operate the quotas from inside the jail quotas have to be mentioned
in jail's /etc/fstab too (when using the file name of quota file it has
to be relative to jail's root). Repquota/edquota/quota work inside the
jail.

You have to keep in mind that disk quotas are in fact a property of a
filesystem and are not related to jails at all. So if two jails share a
filesystem the disk quotas are shared too. If you have users with the
same UID in both the jails they will share the quota.

How hard would it be to extend quotas so that its not just uid/gid based, but directory? ie. everything under /vm/jail1 falls under this quota, regardless of uid/gid?
