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.

NOTE:

The Comment field is ignored for NFS, FTP, and HTTP shares.

NOTE:

Services for NetWare (SFN) are compatible with the Novell NetWare Bindery service for authentication and file access using the

Internetwork Packet Exchange/Sequenced Packet Exchange (IPX/SPX) network protocol. You must perform a NetWare logon to the NAS system
using a NetWare client before you can connect to the NetWare shares.
