Re: [Openvds-support] Quotas

[Simon Garner]

Hi Urivan,

I'm finding quotas work fine in the VS, insofar as 'quotastats' gives a nice
display of each virtual user's quota usage, but it is based only on their
usage from when I ran 'quotacheck' on the host server to create the quota
files. If they create new files in the VS their disk usage is not (always)
updated.

Was there anything special you did when installing Webmin? I don't want to
install Webmin to find out, so if you can show me the docs/install info that
would be good.

Otherwise it looks like freeVSD's quota support is broken when using the new
vfsv0 (aquota.user) quota format. (And I need that, since I'm using RAID.)
:-(

What kernel are you running? As I understand it, the 2.4.7-1 kernel included
with Red Hat 7.2 is patched with the same quota patches I used, so actually
you should be using vfsv0 quotas as well... Do you have quota.user or
aquota.user files?

Thanks,

Simon
