Abstract

Techniques for adjusting storage space involve: receiving a request for adjusting available storage space of a user in a filesystem from a first size to a second size; determining whether to allow to adjust the available storage space based on the request; and in response to allowing to adjust the available storage space, adjusting the available storage space to the second size. Accordingly, not only operations that an administrator needs to perform for adjusting the available storage space of a user is reduced, but also a quick and correct response for a request from a user of adjusting the available storage space is guaranteed.
