Hi Zach, Could you check the UNIX permissions on temp30days/ and make sure you have write access? If you don't have that then I think you'd get a "permission denied" that looks very similar to what you'd see if you had no "p" flag in your caps.

We'd like to set a quota on the /temp30days folder, so I modified my MDS caps to be 'rwp' as described here <https://docs.ceph.com/en/latest/cephfs/client-auth/#layout-and-quota-restriction-the-p-flag>, umounted and remounted cephfs from the client with rwp access, and yet the command setfattr -n ceph.quota.max_bytes -v 1000000000000 /mnt/myrandommountpoint/temp30days still results in "permission denied" Did I miss a setup step? _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list -- ceph-users@xxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to ceph-users-leave@xxxxxxx
