How to quota on ext4fs an project quota on XFS (according to Philippe, our trainee).
We assume that you have an XFS filesystem on device.
To enable quota on it, edit (as root) /etc/fstab:
devicemountpointxfs defaults,pquota 0 0
mount -oremount mountpoint
(Make sure the mountpoint exists.)
Open /etc/projects and add the project:
12:mountpoint/project_name
(Choose number and project_name.)
Open /etc/projid and add the name of the project and the number:
project_name:12
This is also a good moment to create the project directory.
xfs_quota -x -c 'limit -p bsoft=500000 bhard=600000 projectname' mountpoint
To see how many mb/gb/tb the project uses, and how much time of the grace period is left:
xfs_quota -x -c 'report -h' mountpoint
me:~$ sudo xfs_quota -x -c 'report -h' /mnt/D
Project quota on /mnt/D (/dev/sda3)
