I need to have an ability to limit a certain process for using too much disk space.

Saw that this can be solved using containers (here).

Is there anyway to do that in a native way? (Ubuntu 16.04) Disk Quotas is the way to go here?

  • Quota? – Yes. Also check project IDs.

  • Are these project IDs can be handled dynamically on the process level? seems that they are more like a constant configuration. In the user level quotas i can start a process using a specific user so it can get it limit no?

  • Note that if you work through that answer about containers the solution only seems to work for xfs not for ext4.
