Total Storage Limit for Company
Managed Backup provides the feature of a separate storage limit management for companies. This feature allows you to limit the total backup size for a particular company. To manage this feature, the Backup > Storage limits permission should be granted as the administrator permission on Organization > Administrators.
Backups will be suspended for all users if the company's total storage limit is exceeded, regardless of storage limits assigned to users or backup destinations.
The total company storage limit restricts the total size of backups across all users inside the company. As the total company storage limit is exceeded, a backup fails with an error: Company storage limit exceeded
