# Exceeded quota problems on DICE # Exceeded quota problems on DICE
Apologies to those who had issues with having insufficient quota space on DICE in the labs on Monday (26th September). Apologies to those who had issues with having insufficient quota space on DICE in the labs on Monday (25th September).
This was caused by the [dynamic AFS quota system](http://computing.help.inf.ed.ac.uk/dynamic-afs-quotas) which only initially allocates users a subset of their maximum quota and then checks hourly to increase this quota as needed. Unfortunately the amount of disk space needed to store the temporary files used in installing the course dependencies exceeded the current dynamic quota for some people. This meant when running the `conda install ...` command it exited with a quota exceeded error.
