11.4.1 Viewing the Current User Account Policies
1 In Web Admin console, select Users tab to view a list of current iFolder users.
2 Click the link for the user’s name to open the User page for that user account.
3 You can view the following information below Policies:
Parameter Description
Account Specifies whether the user is currently allowed to log in to synchronize iFolders.
You can select the check box to disable the User login.
No of iFolder per
users Specifies the maximum number of iFolder that a user can own. After Applying
this policy, the user is limited to own a certain number of iFolders.The user who
exceeds his or her usage limit receives an error message about the policy
violation. If the limit is zero, the user cannot create any iFolders.
Disk Quota Limit: Specifies the maximum space allotted on the server for this selected
user.
Used: Specifies the total space currently in use on the server for all iFolders
owned by this selected user.
Available: Specifies the difference between any space restrictions on the
account and the space currently in use. If no quota is in effect, the value is No
Limit.
Effective: Effective space allocated on the server.
File size Specifies the maximum total space (in MB) that a user’s iFolder file is allowed
to use, across all iFolders the user owns. A user quota supersedes a system-
wide quota, whether the user quota is larger or smaller than the system-wide
quota. The user quota can then be limited, but not increased by a policy on an
iFolder.
IMPORTANT: Users cannot successfully synchronize files of a size that would
cause a quota to be exceeded. If they try to do so, only part of the file is
synchronized, resulting in data corruption.
If the total space consumed by iFolder file is nearing an effective quota
(system, user, or iFolder), the user should stop synchronizing files until one or
more of the following tasks results in enough space to safely synchronize the
user’s files in the iFolder where the file resides:
Š
The system-wide quota, user quota for the iFolder owner, and the iFolder
quota are modified as needed.
Š
Files are moved from any of the iFolders owned by the user to another
location where they no longer affect the effective quota, or files are
deleted to clear space.
Š
Files are moved from the iFolder to another location where they no longer
affect the effective quota, or its files are deleted to clear space.
