Answer

  • Yes, Storage Usage of S3/Swift tenants can exceed their Quota in some situations
  • Quota check - Performed at different time as uploading objects
    • If quota check is not exceeded at start of object upload:
      • Upload will succeed, even if other objects whose size meet the quota are being processed
      • Storage Usage can exceed its Quota after all uploads are complete
    • If quota check is exceeded at start of object upload:
      • Upload will fail with following S3 error in the bycast.log (expected behavior):
