Hello!
I am in a weird problem of not able to set quota on an ext4 file system. I have setup a logical volume on which this ext4 filesystem resides. It's going to be used by an application for dumping data. But we want to setup quota so that it does not consume all the free space of the lv. The application will generate an error log if the quota limit is crossed.
I'm trying to configure quota for my / mount on Ubuntu 11.10. I have added ,usrjquota=quota.user,grpjquota=quota.group,jqfmt=vfsv0 to it in fstab. Made mount -o remount / and quotacheck -avugm.
I have a samba server exporting homes. Usermanagement/authentication is done via ldap (openldap to be specific). Now I want those users to have a filesystem quota. As far as i understand the best way would be to implement them in the underlying filesystem, with the standard linux quota tools ("quota").
Hi,
Just got my first dedicated server running, I'm facing this problem

I am using Debian Squeeze. Suddenly I have started facing a problem that my user is not able to make directories and other such tasks.
Is it possible to create a volume group from a logical volume instead of a physical volume? If so, are there any pitfalls in doing so?
Use case:
Installing OpenStack Compute on a a system that already has all of the physical volumes assigned to a singe volume group. The nova-volume service requires a separate volume group, as described in the documentation.
Title should have been "Quota & user backup question" :o
I've got a question about specifics on quotas.
Here's the situation: I've a user that uses about 13GB of diskspace and has a quota of 25GB.
The nation's biggest telco Telstra has revealed plans to start throttling data speeds on its customers' mobile phones once they exceed their monthly quota, in an effort to avoid the so-called 'bill shock' phenomenon that can occur when post-quota data is charged in increments.
hi,
ive setup a partition over my 80gb drive which includes a lvm volume group called vgpool but i forgot to create a boot partition outside of the lvm.
theres still space on the drive, but how do i get the volume group smaller?
inside the lvm are various logical volumes called: usr/var/home/tmp and so on.
i know that the space allocated for the volume group is bigger than all logical volumes
