Windows Server 2012 : Provisioning and managing shared storage (part 7) - Managing shared storage - Managing volumes, Managing shares

3.3 Managing volumes

You can use the Volumes subpage of the File And Storage Services page in Server Manager to manage your volumes. For example, by right-clicking on a volume in the Volumes tile as shown in Figure 13, you can perform tasks such as creating a new share on the volume, formatting the volume, extending the volume, or scanning the volume’s file system for errors.

You can also perform the same tasks from the Volumes tile on the Disks subpage. In addition, you can use the Volume tile on the Shares subpage to quickly determine how much capacity has been used on a volume.

3.4 Managing shares

You can use the Shares subpage of the File And Storage Services page in Server Manager to manage your shares. For example, by right-clicking on a share in the Shares tile as shown in Figure 14, you can perform tasks such as configuring a quota on the folder, stopping the sharing of the folder (this does not delete the underlying folder for the share), or opening the properties for the share. Opening the properties for the share lets you further configure the share by modifying its permissions, enabling access-based enumeration, configuring folder usage, and so on.
