Setting up End-User Access Setting up the Grace Period for a Volume Quota 5 Setting up the Grace Period for a Volume Quota You can set up a limit on the amount of space available to your users or groups. This limit can be set as a soft quota and hard quota. When the users reach their "soft quota," a warning is issued and the grace period begins. Users then have the amount of time set in the grace period to either reduce the amount of spaced used by deleting files, or have the quota increased. If the amount of space is not reduced before the grace period expires or the user reaches the hard quota, the user is automatically denied write access to the volume. NOTE Before you create quotas for a user or group, make sure that you set up the Warn For time for each volume from the Filesystem Quota page. The Warn For time only affects individual quota that was created after the Warn For time was set. To set up the grace period for a volume: STEP 1 From the Manager Menu, click Access Quota. The Filesystem Quota page appears. Lynksys Small Business NSS4000 and NSS6000 Series Network Storage System Administration Guide 90

Setting up the Grace Period for a Volume Quota
You can set up a limit on the amount of space available to your users or groups.
This limit can be set as a soft quota and hard quota. When the users reach their
“soft quota,” a warning is issued and the grace period begins. Users then have the
amount of time set in the grace period to either reduce the amount of spaced used
by deleting files, or have the quota increased. If the amount of space is not
reduced before the grace period expires or the user reaches the hard quota, the
user is automatically denied write access to the volume.
NOTE
Before you create quotas for a user or group, make sure that you set up the
Warn
For time
for each volume from the
Filesystem Quota
page. The
Warn For time
only
affects individual quota that was created after the
Warn For time
was set.
To set up the grace period for a volume:
STEP 1
From the
Manager Menu
, click
Access
¨
Quota
.
The
Filesystem Quota
page appears.
