Re: prjquota not updating used blocks

["Weber, Charles (NIH/NIA/IRP) [C]" <WeberC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Ben,

When I referred to initialize I meant  running xfs_quota -x project -s name

When I run xfs_quota -x 'project -c lg'

I do get warnings about project identifier and inheritance but only for the new directories that I created and copied the large data sets into. I don't get those warning about the earlier files and folders for a given project.

When I run the project -s again it does update the block usage. But I would think the block usage should update automatically.

Thanks for replying so quickly.

Since initializing a project quota, there is no change in used blocks. When I initialize the block count is correct.  If I re-initialize, the used block count is updated properly.

I copied 2T last night into the folder referenced by the lg project quota and there is no change in used blocks today.

What have I missed?

An initial guess is you did not set up the project in xfs_quota using the
'project -s' xfs_quota command.

'project -c' output should look like this:

xfs_quota> project -c testproject  
Checking project testproject (path /mnt/test/testa)...
Checking project testproject (path /mnt/test/testb)...
Processed 2 (/etc/projects and cmdline) paths for project testproject with recursion depth infinite (-1).

But if you don't set up a project you might see something like this:

xfs_quota> project -c testproject
Checking project testproject (path /mnt/test/testa)...
/mnt/test/testa - project identifier is not set (inode=0, tree=33)
/mnt/test/testa - project inheritance flag is not set
/mnt/test/testa/file - project identifier is not set (inode=0, tree=33)
/mnt/test/testa/file - project inheritance flag is not set
Checking project testproject (path /mnt/test/testb)...
/mnt/test/testb - project identifier is not set (inode=0, tree=33)
/mnt/test/testb - project inheritance flag is not set
Processed 2 (/etc/projects and cmdline) paths for project testproject with recursion depth infinite (-1).

And you'd have similar symptoms.  You can also check which project the files
you created are in by using the xfs_io 'lsproj' command.  There is also a
'chproj' command if find that your existing files aren't in the project and
need to add them in.

Ben
