You are right, this would only happen in case of disaster and total

Is he adding more disks or redistributing the free space he's got?
A simple "zfs set quota=100g array1/d1" may be all he needs.

The user has set an explicit quota on the filesystems (50G on d[1-3],
175G on d[4-5]). You can increase the quota using 'zfs set quota' or
eliminate it alltogether using 'zfs inherit quota'. See zfs(1M) for
more information.
Incidentally, 'zfs list' is a much easier way to view this information
