Hello my friend! Today I show you step-by-step how to Set Disk Storage Quota on Windows Server 2012 R2 inside VMware! Disk Quota feature allows you to limit hard drive storage space each domain user can store on server shared drives. This stops users from filling up entire server disk! Very easy to follow with video tutorial in Khmer! Let's get started!
๐ก Tip: Setting disk quota is super important for file servers! It prevents users from storing too many personal files, videos, or games on server shared drive!
Step 1: Enable Disk Quota Management on Drive Volume
- Open File Explorer on server (
Win + E). - Right-click target drive volume (example:
Local Disk (E:)orD:) > select Properties. - Click Quota tab at top menu bar > click Show Quota Settings button.
- Check Enable quota management box.
- Check Deny disk space to users exceeding quota limit box (blocks users from saving files when disk limit is full!).
- Select Limit disk space to: Enter maximum limit (example:
10 GB). - Set Set warning level to: Enter warning threshold (example:
8 GB). - Click Apply > click OK to confirm system message.
๐ก Tip: If you uncheck "Deny disk space to users exceeding quota limit", users can still save files over limit, but server will generate warning event log!
Step 2: Set Custom Quota Limit for Specific User Account
If you want specific employee (like Manager or IT admin) to have more disk space limit:
- In Quota Settings window, click Quota Entries... button at top bar.
- Click Quota menu at top left > select New Quota Entry....
- Type domain user name (example:
sok.sao) > click Check Names > click OK. - Select Limit disk space to: Set custom size limit for this user (example:
50 GB). - Click OK.
๐ก Tip: You can monitor each user's current disk space usage and total remaining space in real time inside Quota Entries list window!
