Disk Quota Select the check box to enable a system-wide quota, then specify the total
space quota (in MB) for the current iFolder domain.
Deselect the check box to disable a system-wide quota.
If you enable a system-wide quota that is less than a user’s current total space
for iFolder data, the user’s data stops synchronizing until the data is decreased
below the limit or until the quota is increased to a value that is larger than the
user’s total space consumed.
Enabling or modifying the system-wide quota does not affect existing individual
user quotas. Any existing user quota always overrides system-wide quota,
whether the user quota is lower or higher than the system-wide quota.
Default value: 100 MB
File Size Deselect the check box to disable the Maximum File Size Limit policy. If the
policy is disabled, the value is reported as No Limit.
Select the check box to enable the Maximum File Size Limit policy, then specify
the maximum allowed file size in MB.
Consider the following demands on your system to determine an appropriate
file size limit for iFolders in your environment:
Š
Intended use
Š
How often the largest files are modified
Š
How the applications that use the largest files actually save changes to
the file (whole file or deltas)
Š
How frequently the files are synchronized by each member
Š
How many users share an iFolder
Š
Whether users access iFolder on the local network or across WAN or
Internet connections
Š
The average and peak available bandwidth
Even if you set a very large value as a file size limit and if there is no quota to
limit file sizes, the practical limit is governed by the file system on the user’s
computer. For example, FAT32 volumes have a maximum file size of 4 GB
minus 1 byte.
Default value: Disabled, No Limit
Excluded Files Specify whether to restrict file types that are synchronized by exclusion filters.
Type a file extension, then click Add to add it to the list.
You can only add or delete file extensions; subsequent editing is not allowed on
the entries.
