Just a follow-up on Bob's comments (which I fully support): It's one thing if some disk is full, but another if you fill up the account's home directory. All kinds of stuff will stop working unexpectedly if the home directory runs out of quota. So, please try to avoid that at all costs.
BTW, the quotas exist for a reason. We used to have no quotas on /adaqfs/home. Then, one day, someone filled up the entire disk (there is a limit eventually), and stuff stopped working for *everyone*, including the DAQ. That was extra bad. The quotas now keep the damage limited to the abused account.
