yes.

I tried to do what it says, but it did not work right.

What did not work right is the following;

1:Using mount comannd with "tagctx" Option ends up with "bad option"

2:executing "cqhadd -v -x 100 /dev/vroot/0" ends up with
"adding quota hash for/dev/vroot/0 ... failed: Invalid argument"

Since these two things did not work right,I could not move to the next
step.

Now,I build to vserver with LVM.
each vserver has own partition.

then i want to give a separate quota space per vserver.

--pertitions--
df -h
/dev/hda3              494M   77M  392M  17% /
/dev/hda1              251M   13M  226M   6% /boot
/dev/hda5              3.7G  2.0G  1.6G  56% /home
none                   189M     0  189M   0% /dev/shm
/dev/hda2              4.0G  764M  3.0G  20% /usr
/dev/Volume00/LogVol01 7.9G  532M  7.2G   7% /vservers/vs1
/dev/Volume00/LogVol02 7.9G  532M  7.2G   7% /vservers/vs2
/dev/Volume00/LogVol03 7.9G  532M  7.2G   7% /vservers/vs3
---------------

please,give me an advice.

right now this technology is not well-known, but since it is a grate
technology,I think more and more peaple would depend on it.
