tosca925 Posted April 26, 2007 Posted April 26, 2007 Is it possible to set quotas up on a individual folder in each users home area on the network? I am running R2 on the file server as well. Just need to monitor the size content of a folder similar to what has been mentioned to monitoring mp3 file usage/size in other posts?
srochford Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 I think so. Check: http://technet2.microsoft.com/windowsserver/en/library/0b7566a4-ace9-4872-9246-86d26573983a1033.mspx?mfr=true which says: "Create quotas to limit the space allowed for a volume or folder ..."
apeo Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 I know you can change the quota on an individual folder but if i read your post right, you want a quota on a folder inside the user area. Not entirely sure how this would work as its likely that you can have a different quota on the folder (which may conflict with the parent folder) but how you do this on mass im not sure. Can quota templates be applied by script?
NetworkGeezer Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 How about softlinks. If this is a standard subfolder then softlink it from another volume where you can have a seperate quota from the main home dir quota.
