    We have started implementing quota on our servers. For our member
    server file servers everything is working fine.

    However we've come across a Security issue because some of our smaller
    offices have DC and File Server on the same server (I know this is not the best practice) and our normal
    administrators don't have Domain Admins permission which means they
    cannot "Admin" or configure quotas for any shares - we've tried and
    they cannot event successfully connect to the server FSRM Console.

    Has anyone suggestions how we can configure/modify the security
    permissions to enable them to run the FSRM Console and configure the
    quotas.

    Hi Momo,

     

    To successfully open FSRM console so that it can launch to configure the quota settings and file screen rule setting on a computer, we may need to logon the server with the local administrative permission to access these file system level settings.

     

    In your case, the privilege of domain administrators on the DC will be needed.

    Hope this can be helpful.

     

    Best Regards,
