Dear All
We have configure Ftp cluster in rhel6.1 64 bit. Now customer wants
to implement quota so that user have limitation to upload data file.
We want the 5gb limitation to user.
We have configure the /var/www/ftp mount ponit failover in cluster.
There is no entry in /etc/fstab for that mount point.
Pl help to resolve the issue.


Regards
vivek

While configuration of filesystem in cluster, please specify mount options for acl. it's equivalent to passing mount option using -o when we try to mount any filesystem manually from command line.

GFS has its own quota system and you can use that, if your FS is GFS.

In case, the FS is not GFS and you are having active-passive, you would need to include the quota file reconstruct commands in your service script, so that the quota gets enforced.

Hope this helps.

Ok, you have some issues and 2 options to achieve the quota implemented.

Issues:
In case, if any of your file system is not mounted or IP is not mapped to the interface, still the cluster will try to start the vsftp service. If you need to make sure that the service gets started only, if IP is mapped and file systems are mounted, configure it as nested.

Options:
1. Modify the /etc/init.d/vsftpd file and add commands for quota implementation in start
2. Create a new init script, have the quota related commands there and call /etc/init.d/vsftpd
3. Create a new init script for quota commands and call that as a second service, where you'll be able to just stop quota service and will have FTP running without limits.

Hope this helps!!!
