Charles Sprickman, and lo! it spake thus:
Trying again, it reported the same inconsistencies then sat there
for more than an hour taking up all the available CPU on the box
until I killed it. The mtime on quota.user had not changed during
the run.
FWIW, I saw this on a box I setup running a late November -CURRENT
last year; I could never get the quotas setup and running right
because the check always just looped itself up. The partition they're
on has about 3 gig used out of ~45, with maybe a dozen users. I never
spent much time on it, since it's just a personal box, and the quotas
are mostly just to provide a handy measure of who's using what (no
limits set). I just gave it up and decided to worry about it later.
What should I do here? It's consistently failing. What information
should I gather to forumulate a PR that won't burden the assignee with
lots of troubleshooting mess? The machine is not in production, but there
is user data on it. I could allow a trusted developer access to it, or
even create another jail to illustrate the problem.
It is not clear from your report whether you run fsck on the problem
partition. I think (and my view is backed by "unexpected inconsistencies"
message) that this is the must.
Sorry about that, I did not mention it, but thinking the same thing you
did, I unmounted the partition and fsck'd twice for good measure. Both
runs came back clean. I think its quotacheck complaining about the
quota.user file...
Ok, please, show me uname -a, dmesg, /etc/fstab, mount -v.
Rather than clutter the thread with all that, I'll link it up:
http://www.bway.net/~spork/quota-info.html
There's also a link to the bzipped quota.user file there, as I'm fairly
certain that holds some secrets. Are there any utilities to poke around
that file with?
Thanks,
Charles
