[lustre-discuss] Quota strange behaviour

[Fernando Pérez]

Dear all.

I have a strange problem with quota.

As you see below I have a user with 30 TB quota and 12 TB used in our lustre filesystem. The verbose quota report for this user always report problems with quota in several targets / osts but the user quota is not exceeded.

Does anyone know the reason why?

Regards. 

P.D.: The listed failed osts are permanently deactivated.
