DFS AND DISK QUOTA
Distributed file system (Dfs) allows Administrators tomake it easier for users to access and manage files that are physically distributed across a network.
With Dfs, you can make files distributed across multiple servers. It may appear for Users that files actuallyreside in one place (computer) on the network.
DISTRIBUTED FILE SYSTEM

Reasons
1. Users who access shared folders are distributed across sites.
2. Most users require access to multiple shared folders.
3. Server load balancing could be improved by redistributing shared folders.

DISK QUOTA
Disk quota tracks and control disk space usage for NTFS Partitions Prevent further disk space use and log an event when a user

space available to individual users.
