We have several users on linux computing pool, are there way to "shape" the IO per user(like a net shaping analogue..)? Is it possible? Can we restrict the number of IO threads per user?
Thanks. Arman.

You can use the cgroups feature to set up a "fair share" hierarchy for disk bandwidth. |

Not that I'm aware of at an OS level, but VMware allows I/O limits per virtual machine, if that is of any use. |

You should be able to use quotas to set a limit on space, but that doesn't limit IO. |
