Troubleshooting Active Directory Issues
Group Quota For an Active Directory User Does Not Work
Description Replication between the NAS source volume and the NAS
destination volume fails because the source NAS volume is busy
reclaiming space.
Cause Replication task failed since the source NAS volume is busy
reclaiming space.
Workaround The replication continues automatically when space is available.
Administrators should verify that the replication is automatically
continues after a period of time (an hour).
Description Group quota is defined for an Active Directory group; however,
when a group member consumes space, the actual usage of the
group does not grow and the group limitation is not enforced.
Cause The PowerVault NX3500 quota enforcement is performed based
on the UID and GID of the file (UNIX) or the SID and the GSID
of the primary group of the user (NTFS), if defined.
For Active Directory users, the Primary Group setting is not
mandatory, and if not defined, the used space is not accounted to
any group. For group quota to be effective with Active Directory
users, their primary group must be assigned.
Workaround To setup the primary group for an Active Directory user:
1
Open the Active Directory management.
2
Right-click on the desired user.
3
Select the
Member Of
tab.
4
The group you need should be listed. Click the group and then
click the
Set Primary Group
button.
Now quotas will take effect for the user's group.
