Title: CentOS5.2, disk quota problem
Post by: mentor1985 on June 23, 2009, 07:40:42 PM

Hi

Sorry for my bad english:)
Just want to enable userquota in linux to the newly created logical partition. I have created /dev/sda5 from the extended partition. Formatted the partition with ext3 file system. Then mount the partion on /work. Done the necessary changes in /etc/fstab file. Applied the label /work to /dev/sda5. Restart the system. After that edit /etc/fstab add usrquota string. Remount the partition again. Created aquota.user file in /work. Update that file. then run edquota username, applied soft and hard limit, but while running repquota -a command i am nt getting that user in summerise report. For eg. i have created user test after that applied quota for it...but my output of repquota -a is as follows
[root@localhost ~]# repquota -a
*** Report for user quotas on device /dev/sda5
Block grace time: 7days; Inode grace time: 7days
                        Block limits                File limits
User            used    soft    hard  grace    used  soft  hard  grace
----------------------------------------------------------------------
root      --    5664       0       0              4     0     0
