In the manual, there are two types of dataset quotas given:
- Quota for this dataset
- Quota for this dataset and all children
- ...the quota is applied to the dataset, as well as to all children (value inherited).
When I have a dataset (mySet) with two children (childOne, childTwo) and set this value of the parent dataset to 10 GB, I can store 10 GB in childOne and 10 GB in childTwo, because both inherited the quota of 10 GB from their parent. - ...the quota is applied to the dataset and all its children altogether.
When I have a dataset (mySet) with two children (childOne, childTwo) and set this value of the parent dataset to 10 GB, I can store x GB in childOne and 10-x GB in childTwo (x <= 10), because all children of mySet together with mySet itself are not allowed to get bigger than 10 GB.
