How-to: Setup multi-Mac backup shares with quotas. Easy.
Over the last couple years, I've been backing up each of my Macs to the default ReadyNAS Time Machine share. It's been OK, aside from having to hack my sparse bundles to stop them from increasing in s...
I recently had to do a factory reset on my ReadyNAS because of a corrupted volume. I set up my Time Machine using my own instructions (in the original post), which I had previously been using for four computers.
My backups have been working successfully for the last couple days, but today it said I exceeded my quota. I checked in FrontView under User Accounts and it says that I'm using 846540 MB out of the 384000 MB quota that I set. My hard drive only contains 200GB of data, so I'm not even using the quota. And now I can't even open the sparse bundle that holds my backups.
Note: This is the second time this has happened since the factory reset. The first time it happened I thought I screwed up a setting, so I did another factory reset.
Any ideas what could be causing this?
Mac OS X 10.8.2. ReadyNAS Ultra 4 with RAIDiator 4.2.22.
