What to Do When Objects are Over Quota

When Quota Manager notifies a network user that an object is over quota, the user can take one of two actions:

•	If the object being managed is a directory or a share assigned to a directory, the user can move or delete files to bring the directory back under quota.

•	If the object being managed is a file, the user must notify the administrator to intervene and change the quota or unlock the quota after a Grace Period.
