"Quota violation warning" & Time Machine stopped working
I've been using a ReadyNAS Ultra 4 (4.2.19) for Time Machine backups under Mac OS 10.6 and 10.7 with no problems, but today I got an alert: Disk block limit reached on volume C for user 'ReadyNAS'....
I just got this error a few minutes ago:
I logged into my ReadyNAS and went to the TimeMachine section, thinking I could just increase the capacity that TimeMachine can use. The capacity was configured for 1500GB yet the max was configured: (Max:919). I couldn't seem to increase the value that TimeMachine can use, even though I still have free space available on my NAS.
Does anyone know how I can increase the space available for my TimeMachine backups? I have 4 Macs in my house backing up to it. It has worked well for years, until today...
Disk block limit reached on volume C for user 'ReadyNAS'.
Disk space used: 1536000 MB (Limits: 1536000 MB soft, 1536000 MB hard)
User 'ReadyNAS' is now prevented from using additional disk space -- grace time has expired..
