quota
Hello linuxvm-list, I have a z/VM 5.2 with gentoo linux running on it. This works really great (I couldn't beleave that everything compiled without problems) and currently I'm looking for a filesysteme for my root partition. At the moment it's reiserfs, but as far as I know the quota support for reiser is broken / unstable. So is there a recommendation which filesystem (xfs, jfs, reiserfs, ext3) to use for the root partition especially if you want to use quota support (I would like to know if my partition is running out of space, so if someone has better ideas than quota, let me know)?

Re: quota
I vote for ext3. The ext3 filesystem is the easiest to fix if something goes wrong. The other filesystems may need some tweaking when something goes wrong. When the root filesystem goes bad it can be very hard to fix problems because you may not be able to boot up cleanly and use the commands needed to work on the problem. -Original Message- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 27, 2006 2:22 AM To: LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: quota Hello linuxvm-list, I have a z/VM 5.2 with gentoo linux running on it.

Re: quota
I also prefer ext3 for RW filesystems ans ext2 for RO filesystems. It is very stable and easy to fix. On 6/27/06, Fargusson.Alan [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I vote for ext3.

Re: quota on LVM
Did you run quotacheck on that filesystem? The sequence is: 1) Add usrquota option to fstab 2) Run quotacheck to create the quota file 3) Run quotaon to enable quotas. -Original Message- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Alikhani Sent: Sunday, December 14, 2003 12:25 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [LINUX-390] quota on LVM Hi all I have a problem for defining quota on LVM file system.

Re: Samba Quota function works well with SuSE ?
Thanks Alan and John. Actually I tested SLES7 with Samba 2.2.0 and Red Hat Linux for S/390 with Samba 2.2.1a-5 yesterday, but no problem occurred. The following description in the Samba web site might not be necessarily true http://us1.samba.org/samba/whatsnew/samba-2.2.5.html Quota problems on a Linux 2.4 kernel. - Currently the quota interfaces have diverged between the Linus 2.4.x kernels and the Alan Cox 2.4.x kernels (the Alan Cox variants are shipped with RedHat). Running quota-enabled Samba compiled on an Alan Cox kernel works correctly on an Alan Cox kernel (the one shipped by default with RedHat 7.x) but fails on a Linus kernel. This is a mess, and hopefully Alan and Linus will sort it out soon. In the meantime we need to ship.

Samba Quota function works well with SuSE ?
Hi all, My customer is going to migrate their Windows file servers into Samba running LINUXs on zSeries, but they are worried about the quota function Samba provides. As far as I know, Samba 2.2.x has a problem regarding quota with Linus kernel, and only Red Hat Linux with Alan Cox patch can handle this function. This customer is thinking of using SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 7 or 8 (which will be available in near future), so they want to know SuSE can handle the Samba quota. Please let me know if this works well with SuSE. Michiyasu Takada
