[Vserver] disk quota and vhashify
Hi, To have disk quotas it seems the best to have a partition for each Vserver guests. But vhashify use hardlink and i think it does not cross partition. What would be the best way to have vhashify AND quota on the vserver ? *Is there a way to implement user/group quota per VServer?* A: Yes, but not on a shared partition for now. You need to put the guest on a separate partition, setup a vroot device (to make the quota access secure), copy that into the guest, and adjust the mtab line inside the guest. is disk limits the solution ? how disk limit work with the quota support ? http://oldwiki.linux-vserver.org/Disk+Limits this tells that it set limits but i don't know how this interact with the quota utilities or the likes. Anyone ghas experiences on how it works ? -- Cordialement, Ghislain smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver

Create a normal vserver, then replaces it's files with a vserver of your choice. There are some stock images here: http://debian.marlow.dk/vserver/guest/ and probably elsewhere, you'll probably want an 'etch' image though, as it is the current stable. It may be best to use an 'etch' machine to create one then copy it across. -- From Ben Green ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver

Re: [Vserver] I/O CFQ scheduler
i am getting ready to upgrade the kernel from 2.6.19-vs2.2.0-rc2 (vanilla kernel) to the current gentoo vserver-sources (2.6.20-vs2.2.0-gentoo) in our production machine and was thinking of using the CFQ scheduler. in an earlier msg about cfq someone mentioned this: Compile CFQ I/O scheduler support into the kernel and append the following parameter to your kernel boot parameters: elevator=cfq what is elevator and how does it relate? is it something i should do? or maybe use deadline instead? is it worth it on a moderately loaded machine? it is currently running 41 guests: 9 reasonably busy web servers, a *very* busy email server and also a busy radius server. the rest are lower usage. primary host os and most guests are gentoo-amd64 however all of the web servers are centos4/x86_64 which chews up *considerably* more resources (because a registered package we use requires this os for now). my primary concern is if a cfq scheduler change from anticipatory would break any disk configs using software raid, lvm2 and user quotas which work perfectly in our guests. during development and implementation of this production server i opted for safety with the anticipatory scheduler but now that it has proven itself, i feel the need to 'optimize' it a bit. suggestions?
