Quota In Xen Virtual Machines

[tmaleshafske]

I cannot figure out how to get quota support in a XEN virtual machine... Is this even possible? And how do you set it up. The way of doing it in the Perfect Server set-up doesn't work.

Appreciate the help

It should. Do you get any errors?

I'll have to try it again. As soon as I do I will post the output

here is the error message:

root@males005:~# vim /etc/fstab
root@males005:~# touch /quota.user /quota.group
root@males005:~# chmod 600 /quota.*
root@males005:~# mount -o remount /
mount: / not mounted already, or bad option
root@males005:~#

here is a copy of my /etc/fstab

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
proc            /proc           proc    defaults        0       0

/dev/hda2 / ext3 noatime,nodiratime,errors=remount,usrquota,grpquota-ro 0 1

Thanks for the help

If mount -o remount / doesn't work, reboot the VM - it has the same effect.
