Every folder to which a user can updload data has a quota and an uploadlimit and belongs to a system default quota category. There are six categories (see table below).
You as OLAT administrator can change the values of the system default quotas and uploadlimits, but the system quotas itself you can not delete them. If you change the value of a system quota or uploadlimit, as you already assume, you change it for every folder which is in this category. If you like to change only one folder's quota you might add a new quota specially for this folder and the default value is overwritten. The only thing you need to is indicating the path to this folder and of course set the new quota and uploadlimit values.
An example: The system default value for the quota '::DEFAULT::USERS' is 10240 KB. That means the subfolders that are directly under /homes have the quota value 10240 KB. The user with username 'extralarge' needs more diskspace. You may create only for him a new quota whose path is '/homes/extralarge' and set the quota's value to e.g. 50000 KB. If you delete this quota the user 'extralarge' has again as before the default value 10240, if you didn't change it meanwhile.
In many cases you might edit quotas in a more convenient way. Under every folder's overview there is a 'Edit quota' button (e.g. in your personal folder) only visible for OLAT-administrators. Like this the path is already filled in.
If you are not owner or participant of OLAT group you need to select the group_id from database using the OLAT group name as follow: (assuming the OLAT groupname is 'xyz')
mysql> SELECT group_id FROM o_gp_business WHERE businessgrouptype = 'BuddyGroup' AND groupname = 'xyz'; +----------+ | group_id | +----------+ | 524290 | +----------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
The path is: /cts/folders/BusinessGroup/524290
Table 6.1. Default Quotas
| Default Quota | Quota (KB) | Upload Limit (KB) | Path to folder used to overwrite the default value |
|---|---|---|---|
| ::DEFAULT::USERS | 10240 | 10240 | /homes/[username] |
| ::DEFAULT::POWERUSERS | 10240 | 10240 | /homes/[username] |
| ::DEFAULT::GROUPS | 10240 | 10240 | /cts/folders/BusinessGroup/[group_id] |
| ::DEFAULT::REPOSITORY | 10240 | 10240 | unchangeable |
| ::DEFAULT::COURSEFOLDERS | 10240 | 10240 | /course/[course_id]/coursefolder |
| ::DEFAULT::NODEFOLDERS | 10240 | 10240 | /course/[course_id]/[foldernodes|dropboxes|taskfolders]/[node_id] |
The default values for system quotas and uploadlimits you might configure in the build.properties file as shown below:
# folder component default values: upload size and quota folder.maxulmb=10 folder.quotamb=10
