Hi everybody I installed ispconfig on a debian etch server that has two hard drives. swap and / are located on the first drive (hda) On the second drive (hdb) I mounted two partitions as /home and /var. Since all the websites will be places in /var/www I was wondering how I should setup the quota. I already setup qouta for /, but since /var is located on a different partition on a complete other drive I was wondering if I should also enable quota for those partitions. Here is what my /etc/fstab looks like now Code: /dev/hda2 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro,usrquota,grpquota 0 1 /dev/hdb2 /home ext3 defaults 0 2 /dev/hdb1 /var ext3 defaults 0 2 /dev/hda1 none swap sw 0 0 Before I go ahead and do what I think has to be done I thought I post a message here or else I might **** things up again. I believe I will have to add ,usrquota,grpquota to the /var partition is that correct? Here's what I believe it should look like. Please correct me if I'm wrong... Code: /dev/hda2 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro,usrquota,grpquota 0 1 /dev/hdb2 /home ext3 defaults 0 2 /dev/hdb1 /var ext3 defaults,usrquota,grpquota 0 2 /dev/hda1 none swap sw 0 0 Any reply will be greatly appreciated Keep up the good work ;-)
quota? Hi Till, please can you check following: this are my partitions on two servers and what i believe it should look like. Server1 Note: partition /var/www is mounted by s-link onto /www and chmoded to 775 to make sure that it can be accessible Code: # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass> proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/hda1 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro,usrquota,grpquota 0 1 /dev/hda9 /home ext3 defaults 0 2 /dev/hda7 /tmp ext3 defaults 0 2 /dev/hda5 /usr ext3 defaults 0 2 /dev/hda6 /var ext3 defaults,usrquota,grpquota 0 2 /dev/hda3 /www ext3 defaults,usrquota,grpquota 0 2 /dev/hda8 none swap sw 0 0 /dev/hdc /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0 and second: Code: # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass> proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/hda1 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro,usrquota,grpquota 0 1 /dev/hda7 /home ext3 defaults 0 2 /dev/hdb1 /mail_backup ext3 defaults 0 2 /dev/hda6 /tmp ext3 defaults 0 2 /dev/hda5 /usr ext3 defaults 0 2 /dev/hda3 /var ext3 defaults,usrquota,grpquota 0 2 /dev/hdb3 /www-backup ext3 defaults 0 2 /dev/hda8 none swap sw 0 0 /dev/hdb2 none swap sw 0 0 /dev/hdc /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0 I am pretty sure that this is right ... but I started on Linux only in October 2007.. Thanx upfront.
errors and unsettling output. I'm trying to enable quota for multiple partitions. The quota.user and quota.group files should be placed on partitions other than / if you want to enable quota for them, correct? That is aside from adding the ',usrquota,grpquota' bit to those lines in /etc/fstab. I'm receiving weird output. Code: # vim /etc/fstab # touch /quota.user /quota.group /var/quota.user /var/quota.group /home/quota.user /home/quota.group # chmod 600 /quota.* # mount -o remount / # chmod 600 /home/quota.* # mount -o remount /home # chmod 600 /var/quota.* # mount -o remount /var # quotacheck -avugm quotacheck: Your kernel probably supports journaled quota but you are not using it. Consider switching to journaled quota to avoid running quotacheck after an unclean shutdown. quotacheck: WARNING - Quotafile /var/quota.user was probably truncated. Cannot save quota settings... quotacheck: WARNING - Quotafile /var/quota.group was probably truncated. Cannot save quota settings... quotacheck: Scanning /dev/sda4 [/var] done quotacheck: Checked 144 directories and 2812 files Shouldn't there be something like the "Scannig /dev/sda4 [/var] done" for the other two partitions I'm trying to use quota on? Interesting lines in /etc/fstab Code: proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 UUID=673e37c2-f61e-4f36-b63d-08cab35a703a / ext4 relatime,errors=remount-ro,usrquota,grpquota 0 1 UUID=3eb8e733-527a-4c9e-b468-122ec877cba8 /home ext4 relatime,usrquota,grpquota 0 2 UUID=c86361ff-f9f8-4921-a4f6-2769f579ef23 /tmp ext3 relatime 0 2 UUID=601b8582-5aed-4efb-8efe-3de3bd411832 /usr ext3 relatime 0 2 UUID=5b1f7704-a03b-4d9b-b29a-721de8e149ba /var ext3 relatime,usrquota,grpquota 0 2 UUID=1fcb9e95-acac-445e-a733-53291d727874 none swap sw 0 0 /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0 Is there something that I'm missing? [Also] Code: # quotaon -avug /dev/sda4 [/var]: group quotas turned on /dev/sda4 [/var]: user quotas turned on with no mention of / or /home. ============================================================== I've decided to go ahead and put /home/me on my own partition and only use 1 partition for everything else in /. THat is way simpler and is really what I was going for. Still though, why was I getting those results, if anyone is willing to subject me to their thoughts on the matter. ========================================================================================= 'nother edit. I'm using ext4. before, /var was on ext3, but / and /home were ext4. That's the problem. And I'm having way too much trouble with 64bit ubuntu server. So I guess I'll be starting over with the lowest common denomerator. <-- yeah, I'm just gonna leave it that way. lol
