    Agreed with John, I have never personally used or seen used the Quota for the file server.

    I think you have mis-configured the policy.  You set the Quota but then created an archive rule to archive everything so EV obeyed the archive rule and did its thing.  You can use rules with the Quota set, but you should make them more specific.  see this Article URL http://www.symantec.com/docs/HOWTO57668

    I would recommend this for your reading pleasure if you haven't seen it already.
