quota on logical volume doesn't work

[Beto]

I've installed plesk 8.0.1 on a fedora core 4. I'm having problems with the quota.(I'm using LVM !!)

They aren't enabled. if I use following command:

[root@cypres ~]# quotaon -avug

Normally should have every filesystem quota enabled . When I look at /etc/fstab no single filesystem has quota enabled.

# This file is edited by fstab-sync - see 'man fstab-sync' for details
/dev/vgcypres/lvroot / ext3 defaults 1 1
/dev/vgcypres/lvbackup /backup ext3 defaults 1 2
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
/dev/shm /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/vgcypres/lvhome /home ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/sys /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
/dev/vgcypres/lvvar /var ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/vgcypres/lvwww /var/www ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/vgcypres/lvswap swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/hda /media/cdrom auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0


When I edit the fstab with vi and add the quota it doesn't work.

I don't now what to check else...

ps. quota is installed

root@cypres /]# whereis quota
quota: /usr/bin/quota /usr/share/man/man1/quota.1.gz

I even tried to update it via yum but there was nothing to update.

there is a knowledge base article but it doesn't work for me (http://kb.swsoft.com/article_16_768_en.html).

Solved:

I got it working...

I added the quota to the /etc/fstab like following line:

/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 / ext3 defaults,usrquota,grpquota 1 1

Then I got to the filesystem where you want quotas on (/var/www/vhosts, in my case a have a Logical Volume mounted over /var/www , but if you have a typical FC4 installation it can be /)

do the following:

touch /aquota.user /aquota.group
chmod 600 /aquota.*
mount -o remount /
quotaon -avug

The last line isn't necaisary i guess because you added usrquota and grpquota to the fstap by yourself.

After doing this quotas were working !!
