Hi,
I'm not sure if this is already an open issue or not - a Google search resulted in various
discussions but I didn't find any open support/feature request.
It would be really handy if during the "create database" statement, one could specify
something like:
CREATE DATABASE foo QUOTA=10G;
to limit the entire database being created to no more than 10GB (in this example).
I've found various other schemes about using ZFS and other disk partitioning systems to
just limit available space in the mySQL database folders, but I've read commentary about
how that can corrupt the database if the disk becomes full.
So, is this a feature that seems useful to other people? It would certainly be useful to
me.
Thanks for a great product!
