As a reseller, it’s important to monitor the **disk space** and **bandwidth usage** of your customer accounts. WHM provides built‑in tools to review these resources so you can manage allocations effectively and ensure no account exceeds its limits.

## Why Review Resource Usage?

- Prevent accounts from exceeding disk or bandwidth quotas.
- Identify customers who may need upgrades.
- Ensure fair distribution of server resources.
- Maintain overall server performance and stability.

## Viewing Disk Usage

1. **Log in to WebHost Manager (WHM).**
2. In the search box (top left), type **quota**.\

  - **Suspend Accounts** → Temporarily disable accounts exceeding limits.
  - **Upgrade Packages** → Move customers to higher‑tier hosting plans.

> **Note:**
- Reviewing resource usage regularly helps prevent service interruptions.
- Always back up accounts before making quota changes.
- Consider setting automated notifications for customers nearing their limits.
