I'm running RedHat6.2 with kernel 2.2.19 and LVM 1.0.4 on ext2 file systems
I'm having problems with quota and LVM.
I can mount 2 different filesystems:
one is a plane-jane ext2 run-o-da-mill old-fashioned /dev/sda5 mount
to /data FS
the other is a logical volume /dev/vg/lv /data2
The data on them is identical, thanks to my friend rsync.
The problem is that I cannot get quotas to work on the logical volume
(it *is* mounted with usrquota - I'm not that dumb). I run 'edquota
ben', make my changes and save it and all is happy. Then I run 'edquota
ben' again and the data is still there. However, whenever I run 'quota
ben' I only get info for the non-lvm filesystem. If the non-lvm FS is
not mounted, then I get 'none'.
I know quotas work on my system, they work on all of the other
filesystems. Is there something I'm missing about quota and LVM? I
*NEED* this to work, and help you can provide will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for feedback/replies/remarks/insults.
