[gpfsug-discuss] BIG LAG since 3.5 on quota accounting reconciliation

In the old days of DDN 9900 and gpfs 3.4 I only had to run
mmcheckquota once a month, usually after the massive monthly purge.
I noticed that starting with the GSS and ESS appliances under 3.5 that
I needed to run mmcheckquota more often, at least once a week, or as
often as daily, to clear the slippage errors in the accounting
information, otherwise users complained that they were hitting their
quotas, even throughout they deleted a lot of stuff.
More recently we adopted a G200 appliance (1.8PB), with v4.1, and now
things have gotten worst, and I have to run it twice daily, just in
case.
So, what I am missing? Is their a parameter since 3.5 and through 4.1
that we can set, so that GPFS will reconcile the quota accounting
internally more often and on its own?
Thanks
Jaime
