+#	Verify that new entries are not added to the DDT when dedup_table_quota has
+#	been exceeded.
+#
+# STRATEGY:
+#	1. Create a pool with dedup=on
+#	2. Set threshold for on-disk DDT via dedup_table_quota
+#	3. Verify the threshold is exceeded after zpool sync
+#	4. Verify no new entries are added after subsequent sync's
+#	5. Remove all but one entry from DDT
+#	6. Verify new entries are added to DDT
