I am setting up a new system with Windows Server 2016 and need to transfer the Quotas and File Screens, under File Server Resource Manager.

I have managed to export and import the Quota Templates and File Screen Templates, with File Groups.

I need assistance with exporting and importing the Quota entries and file screen entries, besides the templates.
Not all the quotas have a source template and none of the file screen entries have a template.

    Hello there,

    To back up only your quota templates, and file screen templates, you can export them to XML files in a disk location that you choose by using the command-line tools dirquota.exe and filescrn.exe. Using these exported XML files, you can restore templates and file groups on your local computer at a later date, or import them on a remote computer with File Server Resource Manager installed.

    For more information about template export and import, please see Template Export and Import Scenarios
