From the Home tab, double-click the appropriate storage system.

Expand the Vservers hierarchy in the left navigation pane.
3.
In the navigation pane, select the Vserver and  click Storage > Quotas.
4.
In the User Defined Quotas tab, click Create.
5.
Type or select information as prompted by the wizard.
6.
Confirm the details and click Finish to complete the wizard.
After you finish 
You can use the local user name or RID to create user quotas. If you create the user quota or group quota using the username or group name, then the /etc/passwd file and /etc/group file must be updated respectively.
