  2. Click + Add Quota or click Edit next to an existing rule.

  3. In the Clusters section, select one or more Qumulo clusters to add to this quota and then enter the quota rules:

    • For Quota Path, enter the quota directory path on your Qumulo cluster (for example, /Reports/Marketing).

    • For Warning (%), enter the quota usage percentage that triggers a warning notification (70 by default).

    • For Error (%), enter the quota usage percentage that triggers an error notification (80 by default).

    • For Critical (%), enter the quota usage percentage that triggers a critical notification (90 by default).

  4. Click Notify Users entered below and enter an email address.

To Configure Quota Notifications by Using the alerts CLI

Run the ./alerts quota_add command and specify the quota path, the email address to notify, and the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of your Qumulo cluster. For example:

./alerts quota_add \
  --quotapath /Reports/Marketing \
  --user-notification \
  --user-mode direct \
  --user-email jjohnson@example.com \
  --cluster-include cluster.example.com

The following is example output.

[{
  "admin_notification": true,
  "critical": 95,
  "error": 85,
  "id": 1,
  "quota_path": "/Reports/Marketing/",
  "user_email": "jjohnson@example.com",
  "user_mode": "direct",
  "user_notification": true,
  "warning": 75
}]
