What is Disk Quota ?
•A disk quota is a limit set by a system administrator that restricts certain aspects of file system usage on modern operating systems.
•The function of setting disk quota to disks, is to allocate limited disk space in a reasonable way.

Why use Disk QuotasWhy use Disk Quotas
• Use the Windows 2003 disk quota capability to:
Prevent users from filling the disk capacity
Encourage users to play their part in managing disk space by cleaning up old or unused files
Track disk capacity needs for future planning
Provide server administrators information about when users are nearing or have reached their disk quotas

Planning TipPlanning Tip
• If possible, establish quotas before making shared folders available to users, because it is politically harder to impose the limits after users are accustomed to having none

Some Pros of File Quota
• The quota system implemented in NTFS 5.0 is quite flexible and includes many capabilities: You have the ability to do the following:
Set quotas on a per-user or per-volume basis. This lets you limit space used on particular disks, or overall total space use for a person.
Set a "limit" level and a "warning" level, or both. The user is blocked from using any disk space above the "limit" level. He or she may use space beyond the "warning" level, but a warning will be generated.
Monitor and log events that cause a user to go over the "limit" or "warning" levels.

Use Wisely
• It can be annoying to have users fail at what they are doing because they have run out of disk space. It is a good idea to institute quotas only if they are really and truly needed.
• If you do use them, be sure not to make them too restrictive--if you do, not only will your users be inconvenienced, so will you when they call asking to have their quotas increased.
• Using the "warning" mode may be a good compromise in some circumstances.
