The flower page does say /etc/vservers/<vserver-name>/dlimits/<dlimit>.

The error message probably appeared when you stopped the guest for the
first time after adding the limit to the configuration.
The cache is only created after a clean shutdown, and then removed when
you start the guest again.

Are you sure all the files in the guest are tagged with the correct xid?
vdu checks the xid of the files to make sure it doesn't sum unified
files, and that the files will actually be subtracted from the usage
when they're removed.
