Yes, it would be very convenient to have such feature: remove the oldest checkpoint if filesystem reached e.g. 80 %. Quota, as you said, is about absolute limit. When we have dynamic environment (often resize filesystems and have many filesystems) recalculating quota is time consuming. > Also note that the hard limit on checkpoints doesn't necessarily remove > only the oldest checkpoint when exceeded -- it removes enough removable > (again, default) checkpoints starting with the oldest until all > checkpoints are below the hardlimit. I am aware of this. However it is still not convenient.
