My production server has 2 - 500 GB hard disks, the O/S is Fedora using LVM. I also have a CentOs 6.3 test server using LVM with 2 - hard disks with a total of around 500 GB. Both servers have owncloud installed. The CentOs server reports that I have 40 GB available under a similar user account circumstance.

The LVM in both cases is setup according to the defaults nothe fancy. No predetermined separate partitions. I have also chatted with another fellow who also setup owncloud and is getting similar results. He is more experienced with Linux that I am and he did not know how this value is determined.

So what is owncloud looking at?

Unless you have a quota set in Settings -> Users, 43.4 GB is what ownCloud

Is the data directory on a separate partition from the rest of your disk
storage?

To make sure it isn't ownCloud related, you can create a PHP file with:

<?php
$bytes = disk_free_space("/");
$si_prefix = array( 'B', 'KB', 'MB', 'GB', 'TB', 'EB', 'ZB', 'YB' );
$base = 1024;
$class = min((int)log($bytes , $base) , count($si_prefix) - 1);
echo $bytes . '<br />';
echo sprintf('%1.2f' , $bytes / pow($base,$class)) . ' ' . $si_prefix[$class]
. '<br />';
?>

When log in to my owncloud ID and go to Settings => Personal, there is a
message about storage at the top of the page. "You use 3 GB of the
available 43.4 GB" What does the 43.4 GB mean? My server has nearly 1 TB
of disk storage. Is this a quota? Or is each user allocation a
percentage of disk storage? Can this value be increased or decreased? I
tried changing the user ID quota and it did not change the value. I
can't seem to find any explanation for this message.
