is there someone around who know this question? doubt it will take much longer till it's filled.
 
I'm not sure what you're asking. Hopefully the following helps:

If the reseller isn't unlimited then users can't use more space once the reseller's space is all used.

Onc eyou run out of space on the server, all users can't use any more space.

And on a VPS there's an additional issue: the host server may run out of space even though your VPS says unlimited.

If this doesn't answer your question, then please post something very specific.

Sorry,

at server stats there are two bars which say "Current Usage" and "Allocated" but what i need to do is set allocated to an higher value

i have 440GB harddisk space left but DA limits it because some reason also it limits bandwidth, how can i change that?

The thing is that there seems to be a server wide limit configured. I just tried modifying both user and reseller admin to a disk limit, but that doesn't seem to have effect on the server stats page.

I have a vague memory of having the option of setting limits for the whole directadmin installation, but since I haven't been able to find it ever since I was starting to doubt it. But apparently there is such a setting somewhere (?)
 
Finally found it, under Complete Usage Statistics.

Still don't know how it got preset. Did you install DirectAdmin? Or did you get it with your VPS? If you got it with your VPS then you need to contact your VPS provider.

Did reseller admin have a limit? If so, and if you set it to unlimited, then perhaps it's just a cached setting which will disappear overnight.

it's hosted on a dedicated server and the company installed it for me, however i know they don't ask any of this kind of question during the installation. also there support is not for this kind of stuff, that's why i'm at DA.com.

Sounds like a VPS to me, if it was a dedi, then the company would (normally) only deploy the server using their (raw) OS distro image for you to install software yourself, as its unmanaged........
 
Dedicated servers can be contracted managed just as easy as VPSs. Think about only a few years ago, when VPSs weren't that popular.
 
If the DirectAdmin license came from the company from whom you got your server, then they're responsible for supporting it; you should contact them and ask them.

Otherwise if you bought the licenses from DirectAdmin you can ask DirectAdmin Support.

Hello,

If the total allocation is a number and not "unlimited", that would imply that DA doesn't see any Users with an unlimited limit (which has been explained above).

Note that this total system allocation is only computed nightly.. not in realtime, so if your changes have been recent, it's likely they've simply not yet been updated.

If you want to update them now, type:
Code:
cd /usr/local/directadmin
echo "action=tally&value=all" >> data/task.queue
./dataskq d200
and once that's done, check again, refresh the page.

Past that, confirm manually with all user limits, eg:
Code:
cd /usr/local/directadmin/data/users
grep bandwidth */user.conf
if you don't see any "unlimited" values there, then that would be why it's a number.
