Creating a Quota Template

1. In Quota Management, click the Quota Templates node.
2. Right-click Quota Templates, and then click Create Quota Template (or click Create Quota Template in the Actions pane).
3. If you want to copy the properties of an existing template to use as a base for your new template, select a template from the Copy properties from quota templatedrop-down list. Then click Copy.
4. In the Template Name text box, enter a name for the new template.
5. In the Label text box, enter an optional descriptive label that will appear next to any quotas derived from the template.
6. Under Space Limit:
   1. In the Limit text box, enter a number and choose a unit (KB, MB, GB, or TB) to specify the space limit for the quota.
      
   2. Click the Hard quota or Soft quota option. (A hard quota prevents users from saving files after the space limit is reached and generates notifications when the volume of data reaches each configured threshold. A soft quota does not enforce the quota limit, but it generates all configured notifications.)
      
7. You can configure one or more optional threshold notifications for your quota template, as described in the procedure that follows. After you have selected all the quota template properties that you want to use, click OK to save the template.
