Quota Template Properties
Applies To: Windows Server 2008
A quota template defines a space limit, the type of quota (hard or soft), and (optionally) a set of notifications that will be generated automatically when quota usage reaches defined threshold levels. If you base your quotas on a template, you can automatically update all quotas that are based on a specific template by editing that template.
