Oh :( Could you please provide some insight wrt. what will the following actions do (I will try them when I have some time but if you know the answer offhand, it will be very appreciated, especially in the multi-guest scenario - will multiple guests step on each other toes somehow?): 1) host# quotacheck -cmu /vservers ; quotaon /vservers guest# edquota someuser ; quota someuser 2) host# quotacheck -cmu /vservers ; ln /vservers/aquota.user /vservers/guest/aquota.user guest# quotaon / ; edquota someuser ; quota someuser 3) guest# quotacheck -cmu / ; quotaon / ; edquota someuser ; quota someuser > > in your case, it just means that you have to set and > maitnain the quota on the host, and let the guests > suffer from the limitations :) Well, it means I have to hack my way around this limitation as I need to set quotas from within the vserver... I have already made some progress but I need to sum up and clarify my findings. BTW, How will the system react if I change the xid-tagging option from UID24/GID24 to internal (I'm using ext3 exclusively)? I mean I can chxid the files to proper values after the change but are there any unobvious consequences? I think I'll change this setting (or turn off tagxid altogether) as repquota -a on the host is mostly unreadable right now. > > but let me know if you are interested in per-context > quota for 2.6, if there is a certain demand, I will > implement it ... > (as usually) count me in :) Best regards, Grzegorz Nosek _______________________________________________ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
