Drive Quotas
Drive quotas let administrators control the allocation of drive space to individual users or
groups of users. When quotas are enabled and properly configured, it is impossible for one
person or group to consume all of the available space on a disk.
When quotas are enabled on a volume that already contains files, the system calculates the
drive space used by all users on the volume. The quota limit and warning level are then applied
to all current users. Administrators can then modify quotas as needed. By enabling and then
disabling quotas, administrators take advantage of the auditing capabilities provided by
quotas, without reducing server performance.
Managing Quotas
Managing quotas includes:
â– Enabling and disabling quota management
â– Creating new quota entries for a user or group
â– Deleting quota entries for a user or group
â– Modifying quota entries for a user or group
Each of these tasks is discussed in the following sections.
