Quoting "Buterbaugh, Kevin L" <[email protected]>:
Hi Sven,
Wait - am I misunderstanding something here? Let?s say that I have
?user1? who has primary group ?group1? and secondary group ?group2?.
And let?s say that they write to a directory where the bit on the
directory forces all files created in that directory to have group2
associated with them. Are you saying that those files still count
against group1?s group quota???
Thanks for clarifying?
Kevin
Not really,
My interpretation is that all files written with group2 will count
towards the quota on that group. However any users with group2 as the
primary group will be prevented from writing any further when the
group2 quota is reached. However the culprit user1 with primary group
as group1 won't be detected by gpfs, and can just keep going on
writing group2 files.
As far as the individual user quota, it doesn't matter: group1 or
group2 it will be counted towards the usage of that user.
It would be interesting if the behavior was more as expected. I just
checked with my Lustre counter-parts and they tell me whichever
secondary group is hit first, however many there may be, the user will
be stopped. The problem then becomes identifying which of the
secondary groups hit the limit for that user.

Hi,
quotas are only counted against primary group

Suppose I want to set both USR and GRP quotas for a user, however
GRP is not the primary group. Will gpfs enforce the secondary group
quota for that user?
What I mean is, if the user keeps writing files with secondary group
as the attribute, and that overall group quota is reached, will
that user be stopped by gpfs?
Thanks
Jaime
