Does it work? although there is nothing like 'standard Linux quotas', because (almost) every filesystem, either brings a bunch of quota routines, if not an entire quota system (like xfs) with it, or doesn't support quota at all (like jfs), but in any case the quota stuff lies somewhere between blocklevel and filelevel access, and I don't think that there are many possibilities for collisions with something like raid or lvm/devmapper (which is basically slightly below block level). the 'standard' filesystem is ext2 (or ext3 nowadays ;) and the ext2/ext3 quota had some issues for a while, mainly because it is fairly complex and not widely used. AFAIK none of those issues where ever related to lvm or md. to answer your question, yes ext2/ext3 quota and the journaled quota xfs provides do work on lvm (over raid5) (at least for me ;) HTH, Herbert > -- > :wq! > > Matthew Daubenspeck > http://www.oddprocess.org > > _______________________________________________ > linux-lvm mailing list > linux-lvm@sistina.com > http://lists.sistina.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm > read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/ _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@sistina.com http://lists.sistina.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
