Set the Storage Limits on a Site Collection

Solution: Use the Set-SPSite cmdlet with the MaxSize and WarningSize parameters.

Two parameters work together to set the storage limits on a site collection: MaxSize and WarningSize. Listing 8.9 shows a sample command line for setting the storage limits.

Listing 8.9. Setting the Storage Limits on a Site Collection

Set-SPSite -Identity http://sp2013/sites/sitecol -MaxSize 1024
-WarningSize 768

Both parameter values are in megabytes. The MaxSize parameter can be any integer value but must be greater than or equal to the WarningSize value. Therefore, the WarningSize parameter can be any value between zero and the MaxSize value.
