Disk quota
1 Enable disk quota
First create a new partition /dev/sd5 and create the file system.
[root@local ~]# mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda5
Since xfs cannot succeed without disk quota, ext4 is used here.
Then mount the /dev/sda5 partition to /home
[root@local ~]# mount /dev/sda5 /home
[root@ local ~]# blkid /dev/sda5
/dev/sda5: UUID="8879cf63-99a5-43bb-9bfe-de303afb0799" TYPE="ext4"
Modify/etc /fstab file
[root@local ~]# vim /etc/fstab
UUID=dddd23d1-1012-4bac-9717-56b9b469e0c2 / ext4 defaults 1 1
UUID=316d8677-25b8-49af-b4eb-54daa20b6595 /boot ext4 defaults 1 2
UUID=dacd6ddd-d765-4646-b98c-0579f2732749 swap swap defaults 0 0
UUID=8879cf63-99a5-43bb-9bfe-de303afb0799 /home ext4 defaults,usrquota,grpquota 0 0
usrquota enables the user disk quota function of the disk, and grpquota enables the group disk quota function of the disk.
[root@centos7 ~]# mount –a /home/
Check whether the mount is successful
[root@local ~ ]# mount
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,seclabel)
proc on /proc type proc (rw,nosuid,nodev, noexec,relatime)
[……]
/dev/sda5 on /home type ext4 (rw,relatime,seclabel,quota,usrquota,grpquota,data=ordered)
You can see that /dev/sda5 has been mounted correctly
2 Create a quota database
[root@centos7 ~] # quotacheck -cug /home
Since the /etc/fstab file sets usrquota and grpquota, so here must be –cug, u corresponds to usrquota, and g corresponds to grpquota.
Now check the /home directory and there will be two more files, indicating that the disk quota database was created successfully.
[root@local ~]# ll /home/
total 36
-rw-------. 1 root root 7168 Apr 25 11:03 aquota.group
-rw-------. 1 root root 7168 Apr 25 11:03 aquota.user
drwx------. 3 centos centos 4096 Apr 16 10:20 centos
drwx------. 2 root root 16384 Apr 25 10:55 lost+found
3 Enable database
[root@local ~]# quotaon /home/
[root@local ~]
# Come down and check it out, you can see that it was successfully enabled.
[root@local ~]# quotaon -p /home/
group quota on /home (/dev/sda5) is on
user quota on /home ( /dev/sda5) is on
4 Disk quota setting
Set user1 disk quota to 100M, and issue a warning when it reaches 80M
[root@local ~]# edquota user1
Disk quotas for user user1 (uid 1001):
Filesystem blocks soft hard inodes soft hard
/dev/sda5 52 80000 100000 13 0 0
The default unit here is block, and 1 block is 1K. soft is the warning value, hard is the maximum value,
Now let’s confirm whether the configuration is successful
[root@local ~]# quota user1 #查看用户user 的磁盘配额 Disk quotas for user user1 (uid 1001): Filesystem blocks quota limit grace files quota limit grace /dev/sda5 52 80000 100000 13 0 0
5 Test
(1) Create the test user user1
[root@local ~]# useradd uesr1
Switch to user1 user
[root@local ~]# su - user1 Last login: Tue Apr 25 11:08:41 CST 2017 on pts/1
(2) Create a file test
First create a 50M file testquota.
[user1@local ~]$ dd if=/dev/zero of=testquota bs=1M count=50 50+0 records in 50+0 records out 52428800 bytes (52 MB) copied, 0.562963 s, 93.1 MB/s
You can see that everything is normal
Let’s create a 35M file testquota2.
[user1@local ~]$ dd if=/dev/zero of=testquota2 bs=1M count=35 sda5: warning, user block quota exceeded. 35+0 records in 35+0 records out 36700160 bytes (37 MB) copied, 0.348267 s, 105 MB/s
Because 50M+35M=85M is greater than 80M
Everyone saw a warning issued this time, but the operation was still successful
Come down and create again A 20M file testquota3.
[user1@local ~]$ dd if=/dev/zero of=testquota3 bs=1M count=20 sda5: write failed, user block limit reached. dd: error writing 'testquota3': Disk quota exceeded 13+0 records in 12+0 records out 13217792 bytes (13 MB) copied, 0.165029 s, 80.1 MB/s
Creation failed because it has exceeded the maximum value of 100M!
The test is completed and the experiment is over!
