Share-quota Mode

The Share-quota Mode option applies to paid time-based subscriptions only; it is not available to time-based trial accounts. When Share-quota Mode is enabled (by default), the remaining user quotas will be shared by all realms. When it is disabled, the remaining user quotas will not be shared among realms.

  1. On the main menu, click Settings>Global to open the Global page.

  2. On the Global page, click the Share-quota Mode button to turn it off.

  3. In the Share-quota Mode dialog, read the messages and click OK to proceed.

  4. Click Apply Changes.

  5. Click Confirm.

User quota allocation by realm

Customers with time-based licenses can allocate the remaining user quota to different realms which can control the user count under each realm. The allocation can be configured in FTC GUI -> Realms -> Edit specific realm, then update the user quota amount. The customer can also define whether the remaining unallocated user quotas can be shared by all realms or not through FTC GUI -> Settings -> Global -> Share-quota Mode. The default setting has share mode enabled.
