Managing Quotas
Understanding Quotas
Quotas allow you to restrict the space usage on the NAS server for both users
and groups. A user or group who goes beyond the specified space usage can
not access the system. Each user can have one quota on a file volume.
Quotas are set on a per file volume basis. You can have a quota larger than
the available space on the file volume.
Enabling or Disabling Quotas
To enable or disable a quota:
1
In the Command View NAS web interface, click the Storage tab.
2
Navigate down the tree to Quota Management, then select either User or
Group Quotas.
3
Select a file volume from the drop-down list.
4
Select Actions > Enable/Disable Quotas. If the file volume is:
—
Disabled, enabling it takes several minutes.
—
Enabled, disabling quotas applies to both users and groups.
