Workload Quotas

TrilioVault enables Openstack administrators to set Project Quotas against the usage of TrilioVault.
The following Quotas can be set:
Number of Workloads a Project is allowed to have
Number of Snapshots a Project is allowed to have
Number of VMs a Project is allowed to protect
Amount of Storage a Project is allowed to use on the Backup Target
Work with Workload Quotas via Horizon
The TrilioVault Quota feature is available for all supported Openstack versions and distributions, but only Train and higher releases include the Horizon integration of the Quota feature.
Workload Quotas are managed like any other Project Quotas.
