[lustre-discuss] Problems with quota after adding a new OST

[Massimo Sgaravatto]

Hi

We are running Lustre 2.7.0. We have problems with quota on a filesystem.

This filesystem was initially composed of a single OST, and at that time 
quota was enable on the MDT simply doing:

lctl conf_param cmshome.quota.ost=u
lctl conf_param cmshome.quota.mdt=u

Nothing was needed on the OST (besided specifying "--param 
ost.quota_type=ug" when formatting).

Problems started when we added a new OST (OST0002: there is also a 
deactived OST0001). This was formatted using "--param ost.quota_type=ug" 
but quota is disabled on this OST. [*]

Do I need to somehow explicitly enable quota on this OST ? How and why ?


Thanks a lot, Massimo

Some errors happened when getting quota info. Some devices may be not 
working or deactivated. The data in "[]" is inaccurate.
