Hello Dave, What version of Samba are you running? There is a bug in some versions of Samba that will result in exactly what you are seeing. -Ira / ira at samba.org ----- Original Message ----- From: "David Gibbons" <david.c.gibbons at gmail.com> To: "Lalatendu Mohanty" <lmohanty at redhat.com> Cc: gluster-users at gluster.org Sent: Wednesday, October 30, 2013 9:06:38 AM Subject: Re: Samba vfs_glusterfs Quota Support? Hi Lala, Thank you. I should have been more clear and you are correct, I can't write data above the quota. I was referring only to the listing of "disk size" in windows/samba land. Thanks for the tip in quota-deem-statfs. Here are my results with that command: # gluster volume set gfsv0 quota-deem-statfs on volume set: failed: option : quota-deem-statfs does not exist Did you mean dump-fd-stats or quota-timeout? Which Gluster version does that feature setting apply to?

I was hoping that the quotas. I've configured a quota on the path itself: # gluster volume quota gfsv0 list path limit_set size ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /shares/testsharedave 10GB 8.0KB And I've configured the share in samba (and can access it fine): # cat /etc/samba/smb.conf [testsharedave] vfs objects = glusterfs glusterfs:volfile_server = localhost glusterfs:volume = gfsv0 path = /shares/testsharedave valid users = dave guest ok = no writeable = yes But windows does not reflect the quota and instead shows the full size of the gluster volume. I've reviewed the code in https://forge.gluster.org/samba-glusterfs/samba-glusterfs-vfs/blobs/master/src/vfs_glusterfs.c -- which does not appear to support passing gluster quotas to samba. So I don't think my installation is broken, it seems like maybe this just isn't supported. Can anyone speak to whether or not quotas are going to be implemented in vfs_glusterfs for samba? Or if I'm just crazy and doing this wrong ;)? I'm definitely willing to help with the code but don't have much experience with either samba modules or the gluster API. Hi David, Quotas are supported by vfs_glusterfs for samba. I have also set quota on the volume correctly. If you try to write more data then the quota on the directory(/shares/testsharedave ), it will not allow. But for the clients (i.e. Windows/smb, nfs, fuse) to reflect in the meta data information (i.e. properties in Windows) , you have run below volume set command on respective volume. gluster volume set <VOLUME NAME> quota-deem-statfs on -Lala Cheers, Dave _______________________________________________ Gluster-users mailing list Gluster-users at gluster.org http://supercolony.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users _______________________________________________ Gluster-users mailing list Gluster-users at gluster.org http://supercolony.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users _______________________________________________ Gluster-users mailing list Gluster-users at gluster.org http://supercolony.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users
