Right now, I am using a raid 1 for swap/OS (2 disks, 4 partitions.) For user data, I am using a different pair of disks in raid 1 mounted by fstab in /userdata. Do I have to add "errors=remount-ro,usrjquota=aquota.user,grpjquota=aquota.group,jqfmt=vfsv0" in fstab for the data raid? and next do I have to run quotaon and the other commands? could you help me please? Thanks in advance. Edit: this is my fstab file Code: # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a # device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices # that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5). # # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass> proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 # / was on /dev/md1 during installation UUID=be4fc8a4-33f9-4ffa-a204-33e0051d32d7 / ext4 errors=remount-ro,usrjquota=aquota.user,grpjquota=aquota.group,jqfmt=vfsv0 0 1 # /tecdata was on /dev/md2 during installation UUID=a413be56-17c3-4262-aa2f-83a06a76d6bf /tecdata ext4 defaults 0 2 # /tecdatabackup was on /dev/sde1 during installation UUID=86998da5-58ae-4f09-bfaa-74658af88203 /tecdatabackup ext4 defaults 0 2 # swap was on /dev/md0 during installation UUID=ab8fc625-9326-469e-95c1-bee359289b57 none swap sw 0 0
this might help you (asked similar thing some time back) http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=51711 so in short: you'll have to modify fstab-line and activate quota.... just follow/modify perfect-server-instructions and all OK. good luck...
Ok, I modified fstab to: Code: # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a # device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices # that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5). # # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass> proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 # / was on /dev/md1 during installation UUID=be4fc8a4-33f9-4ffa-a204-33e0051d32d7 / ext4 errors=remount-ro,usrjquota=aquota.user,grpjquota=aquota.group,jqfmt=vfsv0 0 1 # /tecdata was on /dev/md2 during installation UUID=a413be56-17c3-4262-aa2f-83a06a76d6bf /tecdata ext4 defaults[B],usrjquota=aquota.user,grpjquota=aquota.group,jqfmt=vfsv0[/B] 0 2 # /tecdatabackup was on /dev/sde1 during installation UUID=86998da5-58ae-4f09-bfaa-74658af88203 /tecdatabackup ext4 defaults 0 2 # swap was on /dev/md0 during installation UUID=ab8fc625-9326-469e-95c1-bee359289b57 none swap sw 0 0 I do not added errors=remount-ro, I just let default (do I have to change this?) Next, I did: mount -o remount /tecdata quotaoff -avug quotacheck -avugm quotaon -avug It is working right now, could you tell me if I have to add errors=remount-ro? Thanks in advance!
add errors=remount-ro? As a newbee this seems to me like an option (adviced by Gurus ) - if error happens on mount, remounting as read-only (nothing more, nothing less as I see it) I would assume that in most of the cases (like mine) above not needed (if not /) (but I pref to follow what Gurus are telling as makes my life easier )
