quota report from netapp filer

[Karvendhan M]

Hi all,

Is it possible to get quota limits displayed at login time for users? Home dirs are mounted from netapp filer. Netapp filer is running rquotad and we have the latest quota patches installed. ( hpux 10.20 ).

$ quota -v
Disk quotas for kars (uid 1023):
Filesystem usage quota limit timeleft files quota limit timeleft



Thanks in Advance...

Regds,

first of all run

# quotacheck -a

and then run

# repquota / | grep

But be sure that you set up quotas correctly by filesystem

You have the correct procedure in the man page

# man 5 quota

It's very easy!

Good Luck!

hi,

normally if the quota is enabled, then while you login you will get a message "Checking for disk quotas". So check whether you have quota enabled on the system (quotaon). Check the permission of /usr/bin/quota and make sure it's executable to the world. I would also consider adding a line in the $HOME/.profile file - quota -v

hth,

Quota reports on hfs or vxfs is fine.I want more info on getting quota info for a nfs mounted file-system. In our case user home dirs are mounted from netapp filer. Some apps&utils are from HP servers.

netapp is running rquotad and quota's are enabled for the users. but I am not getting any quota info when I run quota -v. All I could see is only the headers.


Does the quota command works in nfs mounted filesystems? If those are originally not hfs/vxfs but wafl/ufs, will it work?


Thanks & Regds,

Karvendhan M.

Hi Kars,
you cannot query a vxfs filesystems's quotas via rquotad.

Hi,

Can you check the following permission

-rwxr-xr-x 1 bin bin 20480 Jan 17 1997 /usr/bin/quota
-rw-r--r-- 1 root sys 1622 Aug 28 10:50 /etc/mnttab



You can also try

# /usr/sbin/quotaon /mnt
