[lustre-discuss] Setting infinite grace period with soft quotas

We're exploring an idea where we keep soft quotas enabled so that users 
will be notified they're nearing their hard quotas (via in-house 
scripts), but users don't like that the soft quota becomes a hard block 
after the grace period. I can understand their rationale as well that 
they should be able to write up to their hard quota always.

Is there a way to set the grace period as unlimited (e.g. lfs setquota 
-t -1 ...)?

Thanks,
Cameron
