Manage Storage Limits for Domains

Microsoft 365 / Google Workspace Backup provides the ability to manage storage limits separately for each domain. A storage limit can be assigned either as a total limit across all services or as a service-specific limit:

SharePoint / Teams / Shared Drives. For trial SharePoint/Teams/Shared Drives licenses, the limit is 100 GB. To increase this limit, you must purchase a commercial license.
Mail, Drive, Contacts, Calendar.

Add Storage Limit for Domain

To add a storage limit

Open the Management Console.
In the M365/Google Backup menu, click the name of the existing domain to open the domain settings.
On the Where to back up step, check the existing limit options:
- Company limit. The first value is the used storage, and the second value is the associated company storage limit. If the domain backup size exceeds this value, the backup will be suspended. You can manage this limit on Organization > Companies.
- Backup destination limit. The first value is the used storage, and the second value is the selected backup destination storage limit. If the domain backup size exceeds this value, the backup will be suspended. You can manage this limit on Backup > Storage Limits.
- Domain limit. The first value is the used storage, and the second value is the configurable domain storage limit. The domain storage limit must be less than or equal to the backup destination limit or the company limit (if the backup destination limit is not set).
- Service-specific limits:
  - SharePoint / Teams / Shared Drives. For trial SharePoint/Teams/Shared Drives licenses, the limit is 100 GB.
  - Mail, Drive, Contacts, Calendar.

To manage the domain storage limit, click the domain storage limit value.

In the Add domain limit dialog, configure the domain limit settings:
- Unlimited. Backup data is not limited. However, if the domain is assigned to a company with an applied storage limit, that limit will still be enforced.
- Total limit for all services. Specify the maximum size of backup data on storage for all services. Value 0 means that the backup size is not limited.
- Service-specific limit. A custom backup size limit can be specified for selected services. Value 0 means that the backup size is not limited.

Click Save.
