[gpfsug-discuss] quota on secondary groups for a user?

Hi Sven,

Wait - am I misunderstanding something here?  Let’s say that I have “user1” who has primary group “group1” and secondary group “group2”.  And let’s say that they write to a directory where the bit on the directory forces all files created in that directory to have group2 associated with them.  Are you saying that those files still count against group1’s group quota???

Thanks for clarifying…

Kevin

Hi,

quotas are only counted against primary group

Suppose I want to set both USR and GRP quotas for a user, however GRP is not the primary group. Will gpfs enforce the secondary group quota for that user?

What I mean is, if the user keeps writing files with secondary group as the attribute, and that overall group quota is reached, will that user be stopped by gpfs?

Thanks
Jaime
