Issues with disk quota on SBS2011 towards the end of migration

SBS 2011 is now doing most of the work but SBS2003 has not been demoted as yet.
Users Shared folders have been moved to destination server but when a user makes a change to a document/file and tries to save, error pops up about not enough disk space.

If user tries to make a backup of the file they receive error: Cannot copy "file name": There is not enough free disk space.
Delete one or more files to free disk space, and then try again.

I havn't restarted servers at this stage because I want to make sure that host server is demoted.


I have turned off disk quota management on both host and destination servers and can't understand why disk space is an issue?

Hi,
I have checked and you are correct!
It was set to 10%
I have changed to 50% and will check with users.
Would user need to log off or restart computer first?

I resolved my problem by making changes to the user roles.
SBS Console > User Roles > Standard User > Folders and deselect - enforce shared folder quota
