Description
The New-FsrmQuotaTemplate cmdlet creates a quota template. A quota template defines a space limit, the type of quota (hard or soft), and (optionally) a set of notifications that the server generates automatically when quota usage reaches the threshold levels that you define.
Examples
Example 1: Create a hard limit quota template
PS C:\> New-FsrmQuotaTemplate -Name "1GB limit" -Description "limit usage to 1 GB." -Size 1GB
This command creates a quota template named "1GB limit". The command adds a description for the quota template and configures a hard size limit at 1GB that does not have any thresholds. A hard limit quota prevents users from saving files after the space limit is reached and generates notifications when the volume of data reaches each threshold.
Example 2: Create a soft limit quota template that runs a command
The first command creates an FSRM action object and stores the results in the $Action variable. The action indicates that when an associated event occurs, the server run Cmd.exe with the specified parameters. The command specifies that server record errors codes from the executed command in the error log.
PS C:\> $Action = New-FsrmAction -Type Command -Command "c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe" -CommandParameters "echo [source file path] >> c:\log.txt" -ShouldLogError
The second command creates a threshold object and stores the results in the $Threshold variable. The command specifies the percentage of the quota limit at which to execute the action, and specifies the action stored in the $Action variable.
PS C:\> $Threshold = New-FsrmQuotaThreshold -Percentage 90 -Action $action
The third command creates a quota template named "128MB limit" and specifies the threshold stored in the $Threshold variable. The *SoftLimit* parameter indicates the quota reports on the disk usage with respect to the size limit and run thresholds, but does not enforce the size limit.
PS C:\> New-FsrmQuotaTemplate -Name "128MB limit" -Size 128MB -Threshold $Threshold -SoftLimit
This example creates a quota template that has a soft limit at 128MB, a threshold at 90% usage, and that runs a custom command.
Parameters
-AsJob
Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.
The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command prompt.
You can continue to work in the session while the job completes.
To manage the job, use the *-Job cmdlets.
To get the job results, use the Receive-Job cmdlet.
For more information about Windows PowerShell background jobs, see about_Jobs.

-SoftLimit
Indicates that the quota reports on the disk usage with respect to the size limit and run thresholds, but does not enforce the size limit.

-Threshold
Specifies an array of threshold objects.
The threshold object defines a percentage of used space from the available space that can be reached during a file operation, and a set of actions that the server takes when a quota reaches the threshold. To perform the action when the quota is exceeded, set the threshold to 100 (percent). You can use the New-FsrmQuotaThreshold cmdlet to create a threshold object.
Parameter properties
| Type: | CimInstance[] |

| Value from remaining arguments: | False |
-ThrottleLimit
Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet.
If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then Windows PowerShell® calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer.
The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.
Parameter properties
| Type: | Int32 |
