OK-
Seeing how the RHEnterprise seems to skip this little tid-bit of info, can someone please fil me in.
I am trying to run quotacheck on /var/spool/mail on a live system, via cron, as recomended.
Unfortunately this is what happens:
-bash </var/spool> sudo quotacheck -vug /var/spool/mail
quotacheck: Quota for users is enabled on mountpoint /var/spool/mail so quotacheck might damage the file.
Please turn quotas off or use -f to force checking.
OK, so what is the propoer procedure for checking quotas on a live system. I obviously need to check it while the system is live.and for /var/spool/mail I should probably do it once per night...
should I just setup a script that does a qutoaoff, quotacheck -avgu, quotaon?
Thanks in advance,
