## Examples

::: example
### Example 1. Creating Quota of Resources for Subtenant with Limited Disk Space

This example shows how to create a quota of resources for a subtenant with a limited disk space.

```
$parent = Get-VBRCloudTenant -Name "ABC Company"
$parentresources = $parent.Resources[0]
$subtenantquota = New-VBRCloudSubtenantResource -Parent $parentresources -RepositoryFriendlyName "ABC Cloud Repository" -Quota 10
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VBRCloudTenant`](get-vbrcloudtenant.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$parent` variable.
2. Get the parent resources using the `Resources` property of the [`VBRCloudTenantResource`](vbrcloudtenantresource.md) object saved to the `$parent` variable. Save the result to the `$parentresources` variable.
3. Run the `New-VBRCloudSubtenantResource` cmdlet. Specify the following settings:

   - Set the `$parentresources` variable as the `Parent` parameter value.
