File Server Resource Manager

File Server Resource Manager is a new MMC snap-in that provides a suite of

type of data stored on their systems. File Server Resource Manager supports:

•

Placing quotas on folders and volumes to restrict the quantity of stored
data

•

Storing active screen files on the system to prevent certain file types or
only allow certain file types that are defined by the administrator

•

Reporting storage usage
