Modules and quotas

To configure the modules and quotas you have to navigate to Administration > Companies while logged in as an instance manager. This will open the companies page, where all companies are displayed in a list, starting with the root company.

Company list

Root company

The root company is the highest reseller company in the hierarchy and cannot be removed. While certain aspects of it can be modified, the company type remains unchangeable. The modules and resource capacity is determined by the acquired license, which cannot be altered by the instance manager. To review the license details, refer to the chapter License.

Modules and quota management of descendant companies

An important aspect of companies is the notion of modules and resource quotas. Modules determine the extent to which a company can interact with different areas of DataForge. The resource quotas section is used to set restrictions on the creation and allocation of resources such as companies, users, etc.

The modules and quota settings can be found on the details page of a company. The instance manager is uniquely able to manage the modules and quotas of all companies except the root company.

Modules

The DataForge modules currently cover four functional areas: Zabbix Client, Reporting, Self Provisioning and AI. Each of these areas can be enabled and disabled individually for different companies.

Quotas

A quota determines the amount of different elements within DataForge, such as the amount of companies, managers, Zabbix servers and so on. They also make it possible to further restrict the use of the modules for companies.
