Abstract

Storage can be allocated to workspaces in a ZFS-based environment. Workspaces can be associated with a workspace weightage. When a workspace is deployed on a client computing device, its workspace weightage can be used to determine an initial quota for a dataset to be created in a zpool for the workspace. The initial quota can be used to determine the size of the dataset. The workspace weightage may also be used to determine an expansion quota and a contraction quota that can be used to calculate the size of an expansion or contraction respectively. The use of workspace weightages and their associated quotas can ensure that the zpool is fairly shared by the various datasets that may be created therein for workspaces deployed on the client computing device.
