How to install File Server Resource Manager on Windows Server

File Server Resource Manager (FSRM) is a tool for administrators to manage file storage on Windows servers. It allows for quota management, file type blocking, and space utilization reporting. FSRM must be installed on all servers where File Dynamics will manage quotas, including the Engine host. To install FSRM on a Windows server, follow these steps: 1. Open Server Manager, select Add Roles and Features, and proceed with a role-based installation. 2. Choose the target server and navigate to File and Storage Services to select File Server Resource Manager. 3. Optionally, install additional features like .NET Framework 4.7. 4. Click Install and verify successful installation through Server Manager. To configure quotas, navigate to Quota Management in FSRM, create a quota for a specific folder, and set notification thresholds. For file screening, create file groups to block or allow specific file types, and set up file screen templates. Additional features like Storage Reports can be configured to generate reports on file usage by scheduling report tasks and specifying parameters. The initial step to install a file server in Windows Server is to install the File Server role from Server Manager and configure the shared folder properties.
