I am trying to evaluation XFS for NFS server. We need to configure directory level quota in order to better manage storage in the server. I came to know that, we can use project quota which looks similar to directory level quotas.
I was able to configure project level quota for XFS file system in my Cent)S 5.7 machine. Below are the details
[root@linux-nfs ~]# cat /etc/issue
CentOS release 5.6 (Final)
Kernel \r on an \m
[root@linux-nfs ~]# cat /etc/projects
13:/das/myproject1
[root@linux-nfs ~]# cat /etc/projid
myproject1:13
[root@linux-nfs ~]# xfs_quota -xc 'report -p' /das
Project quota on /das (/dev/cciss/c0d0)
Blocks
Project ID Used Soft Hard Warn/Grace
---------- --------------------------------------------------
myproject1 0 0 102400 00 [--------]
You can see the hard limit set to 1G. But, when i check directory space using df -h command. its showing entire file system space in "Avail" column.
[root@linux-nfs ~]# df -h /das/myproject1/
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/cciss/c0d0 100M 0 13T 0% /das
Is there a way we can restrict showing entire FS size in Avail column (or show available space which is left after using the allocated quota i.e, Avail space = Size - Used) ? This actually cause confusion to end user who things they still have enough space in the directory.
