mc quota

Description

The mc quota commands configure, display, or remove a quota limit on a bucket.

When a bucket with a quota configured reaches the specified limit, as determined by the MinIO object scanner, MinIO rejects further PUT requests for the bucket.

Each time the MinIO object scanner scans a bucket for pending object lifecycle transitions, it also checks if the bucket has exceeded a configured quota.
