8.2 Managing Quotas Through Quota Manager

IMPORTANT:You can run Quota Manager from most modern Web browsers when JavaScript is enabled. To run it from Internet Explorer, you must enable META REFRESH. Workstation deployments of Internet Explorer come with META REFRESH enabled. If META REFRESH has been disabled, you need to enable it before proceeding.

  1. Launch a Web browser.

  2. Enter the following address: https://ip-address-or-dns-name-of-nms-engine-server:3009/qm

  3. (Conditional) If a message appears informing you that the connection is not trusted, proceed by adding the security exception and downloading the certificate.

  4. Enter a username and password and click Login.

    The username and password must correspond to user that has been designated as quota manager either directly or through a group association.

  5. In the Object(s) field, specify a User or Group object name, or use an asterisk (*).

    In large networks, building a list through the asterisk can be time consuming.

  6. Specify your display and filter preferences in the corresponding regions.

  7. Click Submit.

  8. Click the User object you want to manage.

  9. Add or remove a quota or perform a storage analysis by using the buttons provided.
