How packages and resource limits work in Opterius Panel.

Last updated 1775606400

Every hosting account is assigned a package that defines its resource limits. Packages are created and managed by the admin (or reseller, within their own limits).

What a Package Controls

Resource Notes
Disk space Total storage for files, mail, and databases. In MB. 0 = unlimited.
Monthly bandwidth Outbound data transfer measured by Nginx. In MB. 0 = unlimited.
Email accounts Maximum mailboxes the account can create. 0 = unlimited.
Databases Maximum MySQL databases. 0 = unlimited.
Subdomains Maximum subdomains (beyond the main domain). 0 = unlimited.
FTP accounts Maximum FTP users. 0 = unlimited.

Creating and Editing Packages

In Server Mode, go to Packages → New Package. Give it a name (e.g., "Starter", "Business", "Reseller Basic") and set the limits.

Packages are templates — you can change a package's limits at any time and the change applies immediately to all accounts assigned to it.

Assigning a Package to an Account

When creating an account, you choose the package. To change it later, go to the account's detail page in Server Mode → Edit → change the package.

How Limits Are Enforced

Disk space: The agent reads actual disk usage from /home/{username}/ using du. If an account is at or above its limit, file uploads via FTP and the file manager will be blocked.

Email accounts: When a user tries to create a new mailbox and is at the limit, the panel returns an error. No new mailboxes can be created until one is deleted or the limit is raised.

Databases: Same as email — the panel enforces the count before sending the create request to the agent.

Bandwidth: Nginx access logs are parsed periodically to calculate outbound bytes. Soft limit only — accounts are not automatically suspended on bandwidth overage, but the admin can see usage and take action.

Subdomains: The panel enforces the count on subdomain creation.

Viewing Usage

Each account's detail page shows current usage vs limits:

  • Disk used / disk limit
  • Email accounts used / limit
  • Databases used / limit
  • Subdomains used / limit

In Server Mode, the Accounts list shows a compact usage bar for disk for all accounts at once.

Unlimited Resources

Setting any limit to 0 marks it as unlimited. If you don't want to think about limits, create a package with all limits at 0 and assign it to your accounts.
