Please complete the picture with an id command to prove that you're in the dstage group, and a df command to show whether the disk is full. After the touch command it would have been good to echo ? to get the exit status of touch.

It might also be Information Analyzer. in which Rule Sets exist but they're totally different from those of QualityStage.
