Hi, Unfortunately you'll have to use Solaris disk quotas for that. Make sure that the table files of each restricted-space user count towards their personal quotas. This means that you have to create a separate OS account for each user you want to restrict with the quota. This also means that the table files must be owned by those restricted users. I hope this quota feature will be added into MySQL in the future.
