Re: Incredible Disappearing Quotas
Hi all, All the quotas on our system (Red Hat 7.3, quota package quota-3.03-1, kernel kernel-2.4.18-5, ext3fs filesystems) keep getting hosed. I keep updating them, but user quotas either disappear, revert to the previous quotas, etc. About once per week I've been setting the quotas properly, but as each day goes on, even without modifying *any* quotas, one by one they start disappearing. I've already tried deleting the aquota.group file (we're using group quotas, specifically) and starting over, but the problem is persistent. I'm a step away from keeping user quota information in a database and then running a script to set the quotas every day, but that seems a bit on the kludgy side. Does anyone have a better solution or any info? TIA, Fred -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list I've been having the same problem too. But on 8.0. the group quotas are reverting back to 0 for blocks and inodes this is very annoying as I must ensure that the users keep under quota for their mail and another group for their webpage -- Jesse Jacobs, Supa' Noob :) -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Does anyone have a better solution or any info? Here's what I recommend... 1. Upgrade your kernel. Yours is out of date. If that fails to make a difference... 2. Get the latest quota src package from rawhide and recompile it for your 7.3 system. If that also fails... 3. Go to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/ and file a complete and thorough bug report. Give them lots of details so they can help resolve your problem. -- Brian Ashe CTO Dee-Web Software Services, LLC.
