problems with quota files
Hello I am running cyrus 2.4.17 I realized that quota shown for users with quota command is much less than real filesystem usage an example: /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/quota user.username Quota % Used Used Root 1500 34 5189501 user.username du -sh /var/spool/imap/m/user/username 11G/var/spool/imap/m/user/username I am a bit worried about it. I am using ext4 the same problem was also on the previous cyrus version I was using 2.3.16 because I have the same problems. I fixed the quota files with quota -f but it did not resolve my problem. any hints ? thank you Rick Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/ To Unsubscribe: https://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/mailman/listinfo/info-cyrus

Re: problems with quota files
Hi, thanks for your reply. I do not have any particular single instance store setup... it is just a normal raid5 DELL Perc with SATA disks...

Re: problems with quota files
I realized that quota shown for users with quota command is much less than real filesystem usage This is expected. cyrus quota is sum of size in bytes of each email. Disk quota used might be much higher because minimum size of a file on lots of filesystems is 1 block.

In addition: - with delayed expunge deleted mails will be keept some time - without metapartition cyrus header, index, cache, squat, expung (only 2.3.x) will use some space Regards Michael M.MengeTel.: (49) 7071/29-70316 Universität Tübingen Fax.: (49) 7071/29-5912 Zentrum für Datenverarbeitung mail: michael.me...@zdv.uni-tuebingen.de Wächterstraße 76 72074 Tübingen Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/ To Unsubscribe: https://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/mailman/listinfo/info-cyrus
