How do I install Quota Support for FC6 64-bit?

[eugenevdm]

When I install Plesk I get:

Trying to check for quota support... usermng: Unable to turn on user quota. User quota not supported on device '/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00'

System error 22: Invalid argument
Quota is not supported by your operating system.
Probably kernel has not compiled in quota support.


How do I enable quota support for my Fedora Core 6 64-bit box?

 

[mochaman]

/etc/fstab usrquota

To enable quota on filesystems, you need to specify the 'usrquota' and/or the 'grpquota' parameters in your fstab. Here are 3 filesystems from my own server. Note that the root entry is wrong ( not sure why ) but the /dev/sdb1 entry is correct. Once you remount the filesystem, quotas will be supported. Then you can use all the quota utilites under /sbin/ and /usr/sbin/ .


LABEL=/ / ext3,usrquota defaults 1
/dev/sdb1 /e ext3 defaults,usrquota 1 2
/dev/sdb2 /f ext3 defaults,usrquota 1 2

Are you running a stock FC6 kernel?

 

[mochaman]

No FC6 kernel - this is just general Linux information . If you've already done this and quotas are still not enabled on your custom FC6 server, then I'd say look over your kernel configuration again. Also, the first line should be

"LABEL=/ / ext3 default,usrquota 1"

The provider made a mistake in the original installation.
