2.

 

Click Shares.

3.

 

On the Shares page, click Shares.

1.

 

Log in to the NAS Manager.

2.

 

Click Shares.

Uncheck the protocol(s) to remove it from the share.

Click OK to confirm the protocol removal, or click Cancel to keep the protocol(s) for the share.

 

Disk Quotas

 

Disk quotas track and control the use of disk space for volumes. You can configure the volumes on your NAS system to:

l

 

Prevent further use of disk space and log an event when a user exceeds a specified disk space limit.

l

 

Log an event when a user exceeds a specified disk space warning level.

 

When you enable disk quotas, you can set both the disk quota limit and the disk quota warning level.

l

 

The disk quota limit specifies the amount of disk space a user is allocated within a specific volume.

l

 

The warning level specifies the point at which the event log displays that a user is nearing the quota limit within a specific volume.

 

For example, you can set a user's disk quota limit to 50 MB and the disk quota warning level to 45 MB. With these settings, the user can store no more than
50 MB on the volume. If the user stores more than 45 MB on the volume, you can set the disk quota system to log a system event to the event log.
