Initial Quota Setup

log in to your WHM>>server configeration>>initial quota setup

Login to WHM.

• Navigate to the ‘Initial Quota Setup’ section under ‘Server Configuration’.

• You will get a warning that says – “Warning: enabling quotas on a machine that does not have kernel support for quotas may result in an unbootable system. This will only happen if you have compiled a custom kernel on your machine WITHOUT quota support. Proceed at your own risk”.
• In case your kernel does not support quotas, then an issue can occur. Since your server might have been set with quota enabled, it should be safe to continue.
• Click on ‘Proceed’ to continue.

• After this step, a screen will be displayed like shown below and a quota scan will be initiated.
• 
• The disk scan process and quota setup will take some time to complete. Once the process is completed, you will see a ‘Done’ message on your screen.

That’s it! Now the disk quota is enabled for you. This will help you in keeping a track of your hard drive and its usage.
