I would like to use this command for full backups, what do you think?

[albatroz]

I would like to run this command http://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=198
to get full backups of my customers, but I am worried that it may make my customers
surpass their diskpace quotas.

What do you think? Do you think it will take my admin or their user quotas?

It should use the quota from the admin account, since the backups will be stored in the admin's home directory.

Quota is not based on who owns the directory, but rather on who owns the file.

So to see who's quota would be affected, use the filemanager or the shell to see who owns the file in question.

The backup files were created with the following owner: admin:group
where admin is the admin user and group is the group related to the user/owner
of te corresponding hosting account.
