i want to implement disk quota on my /home filesystem (it is going to be a
mail server) so i
read tha appropriate how to's
edited limits for the users and everything is fine
but then for quota meintenance i stuck into quotacheck
the man page says
quotacheck should be run each time the system boots and mounts non-
valid filesystems. This is most likely to happen after a system
crash.
AND
It is also unwise to run quotacheck on a live
filesystem as actual usage may change during the scan. To
prevent
this, quotacheck tries to remount the filesystem read-only
before
starting the scan. After the scan is done it remounts the
filesystem
read-write.
but the 7.2.3 paragraph (Managing disk quotas) of centos 5 deployment guide
...... However, quotacheck can be run on a regular basis, even if the system
has not crashed. Running the following command periodically keeps the quotas
more accurate .......
i have looked also on the web
and some suggest to run quotacheck only at boot time
and others to run quotacheck regularly but i ahve not found a clear answer
i wonder what are the comments of centos community on hte subject
