How To: Simplify Quota Management With Quota Templates

| | No TrackBacks
One of the most important tasks of a system administrator is to set disk quotas. This will help to prevent exhausting free disk space on a server, especially in case of a large number of users.

It can be done manually on a per-user basis, while the number of users is not large; when that number grows, Quota Templates could be of help.

The idea is to apply groups of settings to folders and volumes quickly. Open File System Resource Manager, open quota management node, right click on a quota templates node. Now click 'Create Quota Template'. You create the basic settings set (space, hard or soft, notification threshold etc).

Now you can apply the defined settings to folders or volumes, 'in a single click'.
