If set, the backend is treated as if it does not report a quota at all. No warnings and errors are created and no quota values are set in the backup log. This option is intended to be used if a backend reports a wrong quota, so it needs to be disabled.
Mono sometimes reports the total size of unknown file systems as zero. Because it should be obvious when the size is actually zero, ignore the quota in this case.
The assigned quota size is checked in addition to the reported backend quota (if available). It can be used to limit the backup size on the remote. Warnings are created according to the same quota warning threshold. Previously, this option had no function.

--quota-disableoption to disable the reported backend quota. Sometimes Mono does not report the quota for the backup path, but rather for a parent directory.Updated help text
Disabled quota
If the quota is disabled, the backend is treated as if it does not support reporting a quota at all. This means that the quota values in the result remain set to zero.
The reported quota sometimes needs to be disabled, because Mono sometimes does not recognize the mount point. Then it will report the quota for a parent directory.
Assigned quota
The
--quota-sizeoption was previously intended to provide a total backend size, if it does not support reporting a quota. However, this never actually worked. Instead, it now sets a limit on the backup size, in addition to the reported backend quota.If the backup size is more than the assigned quota size, the backup completes with an error. If the remaining free space is less than the warning threshold (percentage of backup size), the backup completes with a warning. If both the backend quota and the assigned quota is exceeded, the backend quota takes precedence in warning and error messages.
