Hi Corey, [...] > roberto, are you wanting to use disk limits > (http://linux-vserver.org/Disk_Limits_and_Quota) or user/group quotas > (http://linux-vserver.org/Quotas) on ext4? > > you said you were "following the howto on the wiki" and that included > mounting with "-o tag". the disk limits wiki page details mounting with "-o > tag" (and appears to be the only wiki page that includes that: > http://www.google.com/search?q=site:linux-vserver.org+%22-o+tag%22) and disk > limits haven't worked on ext4 for some time > (http://list.linux-vserver.org/archive?mss:4959:201104:cnkmighjiiigipolfgel > and attached log). > > but in your mount options you are using jqfmt, usrjquota,& grpjquota, which > is for (journalling) user/group quotas, not "disk limits". if you want > user/group quotas, then i don't believe tagging is necessary (or at least the > linux-vserver quotas wiki page doesn't specify such). > > if you can clarify what you are trying to accomplish (ie "user/group quotas" > or "disk limits"), then your problem can probably be addressed more quickly > (eg if you want to do disk limits on ext4, then i could have told you it > probably doesn't work as testfs.sh says it "fails" from at least 2.6.35 > through the latest 3.0.16 and following the disk limit instructions > probably won't enable user/group quotas). I'm successfully using users/groups quota on Kernel: 3.1.4-vs2.3.2.1 according to the wiki page you have metioned above and now, for the first time, I'm going to use disk limits. I can get disk limits working on ext3 of course. The testfs script seems to show that ext4 inode tagging is working fine, but despite of the fact that I mount the partion in this way inside fstab: /dev/sda3 /usr/local ext4 data=ordered,rw,usrjquota=aquota.user,grpjquota=aquota.group,jqfmt=vfsv0,tag 1 2 as Herbert pointed out, the tagging is not recognized during the mounting. I don't have ideas on the purpose, and google searching produced anything, anyway tonight, during users' sleep time, I will try again. Also I would like to know if the failed tag option recognition is an issue which just comes with ext4, or is an issue related to linux-vserver and ext4. Thank you, best regards Roberto Puzzanghera > > corey > -- > undefined@pobox.com
