Claim:
1. A computer-implemented method for handling Quality of Service (QoS) for one or more network file shares associated with one or more Network Attached Storage (NAS) servers, the method comprising: determining a given actual value for a given QoS parameter for at least one of the one or more network file shares, through a benchmark test procedure; assigning a given QoS policy to the at least one of the one or more network file shares; associating the given QoS policy with the given QoS parameter; and controlling, at the one or more NAS servers, the given QoS policy, wherein the given QoS policy assigned to the at least one of the one or more network file shares has a different priority compared with a given QoS policy assigned to at least one other of the one or more network file shares.
