19.3 Managing the User Disk Quotas for iFolder User Accounts

The Initial Client Quota, specified in the Global Server Policies, determines the default maximum disk space allocated to a new iFolder account. For information, see Section 19.2, Configuring Global Server Policies.

As the account matures, or for select users, you might need to expand or reduce the amount of space allocated to an iFolder account. The User Disk Quota specifies the actual maximum disk space allocated to an individual iFolder account. The maximum disk quota size for an iFolder account is 8 TB.

Modifications to the User Disk Quota apply immediately to the user’s iFolder account. If you reduce the quota below the current size of the user’s iFolder data, the user is not able to upload data to the iFolder server until sufficient amount of data is deleted or moved from the iFolder account.
