If you have multiple accounts on your Dedicated server and you want to provide them with different amount of resources, you can benefit from the Packages functionality provided to you by WHM.
Each account on your server has a Package setting. It determines most of the options for this account - the maximum space on the Hard Disk that the user can use, the number of FTP accounts s/he can create, how many mails per hour s/he can send and many more.
To create a new package of features for your account, first login as root to WHM. Then, navigate to the Add Packages link in the left menu. In this page, enter the name for your Package, and configure the preferences you want to have set for it.
Finally, click on the Add button and your package is ready for use.
Next, click on the Upgrade/Downgrade an Account link from the left menu. Select the username you want to assing the package to and click the Modify button.
Now select the newly created package which should be colored in green and click on the Upgrade/Downgradebutton.
This account will now be able to use the resources defined by your package.
