Managing the Edge Drive Quota

After the administrator configures the Edge Drive quota, users may approach or even exceed their quota. When this happens, there are two options to manage the space usage on your Edge Drive:

  • Delete some files or folders on your Edge Drive to free up some space.

  • CommCell administrators can increase the quota for the user or user group to which the user belongs.

Procedure

You can increase the quota for a user or a user group.

Increasing the Quota for a User

If you determine that a quota for a user is set too low, you can increase the quota for the user by completing the following steps:

  1. In the CommCell Console, expand Security, and then click CommCell Users.

  2. On the CommCell Users tab, right-click the user_name, and then click Properties.

    The User Properties dialog box opens.

  3. On the General tab, if the Inherit User Group Quota Settings option is selected, click the Groups tab and note the external groups of which the user is a member. Click OK and go to Increasing the Quota for a User Group to change the quota for an external group.

  4. If the Enforce File System Quota option is selected, user has its own individual quota setting. In the Disable data protection when Edge Drive quota usage exceeds box, enter a new quota size in gigabytes.

  5. Click OK.

Increasing the Quota for a User Group

When you change the quota size for a user group, keep in mind that all members of the group are affected by this change.

  1. In the CommCell Console, navigate to the user group that you want to configure.

    • To access a CommCell user group, expand Security > CommCell User Groups.

    • To access an external user group, expand Security > Domains > domain_name > External Groups.

  2. Right-click the group_name, and then click Properties.

    The properties dialog box is displayed.

  3. On the General tab, select the Enforce Edge Drive Quota check box.

  4. In the Disable data protection when Edge Drive quota usage exceeds box, enter a new quota size in gigabytes.

  5. Click OK.
