Setting Disk Space Quotas on Windows Server 2012

description
Info Level: Intermediate Presenter: Eli the Computer Guy Date Created: April 23, 2013 Length of Class: 17:47' Research Assistance: Tracks Windows Server 2012 Prerequisites Comfortable working in the Windows Server 2012 Environment Be able to Share Folders on Windows Server 2012 Purpose of Class This class teaches students how to configure Quotas on Shared Folders in a Windows Server 2012 Environment. Class Notes Configuring Quotas on Shared Folders allows Administrators to manage how much storage Users are allowed to utilize. You can configure either Hard or Soft Limits Hard Limits means that once the limit has been reached the user will not be able to add any more data Soft Limits means that once the Quota has been reached that alerts will be sent, but user will be able to continue adding data. You can set Notification Levels to send emails, messages or log entries when specific Quota Thresholds have been met. File Server Resource Manager To Install MMC Server Management -- Manage -- Add Roles and Features Under Server Roles expand File and Storage Services, then expand File and iSCSI Services, then Check File Server Resource Manager To Run Server Management -- Tools -- File Server Resource Manager Select Quota Management Quota Templates allows you to create Reusable Templates Quotas allow you to configure Quotas for Shared Folders on the server Corrections Note: Email alerts will not be sent unless SMTP Email Services have been setup. Lab Setup Used in Demonstration The ETCG Host Computer Specs are: ASUS Model: CM6870US01 16 GB of RAM 1 TB 7200 RPM Hard Drive i7 3.4 GHz Intel Processor Windows Server 2012 Virtual Machine AD, DNS, and DHCP ETCG.com Domain Created Internal Network Connection in VirtualBox Study Guide Windows Server 2012 Unleashed from SAMs (ISBN: 978-0-672-33622-5) Pages 1138-1141 Resources http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/networking/how-to-create-a-quota-template-in-windows-server-2012/6101
