Quotas editing has been disabled.

CentOS 6.6

When checking virtualmin configuration I get the message:

"The module could not find the mount point for your home directories filesystem /home. Quotas editing has been disabled."

OpenVZ second level quotas enabled recently on the VPS, here is the output from mount:

/dev/simfs on / type simfs (rw,relatime,usrquota,grpquota)
proc on /proc type proc (rw,relatime)
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw,relatime)
none on /dev type devtmpfs (rw,relatime,mode=755)
none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,relatime,gid=5,mode=620,ptmxmode=000)
none on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw,relatime)
tmpfs on /tmp type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,noexec,relatime)
tmpfs on /tmp type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,noexec,relatime)
none on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw,relatime)

In server templates, Disc quotas type is set to Hard (enforced) but this isn't coming into effect :(

Any ideas? thank you

Howdy,

Ah, OpenVZ can sometimes make quota-usage difficult, or even not work altogether.

What is the output of this command though:

cat /etc/fstab

Here's the output, thanks:

none    /dev/pts        devpts  rw,gid=5,mode=620       0       0
none    /dev/shm        tmpfs   defaults                0       0
tmpfs   /tmp tmpfs      noexec,nosuid                   0       0
tmpfs   /var/tmp        tmpfs noexec,nosuid             0       0

I'm new to OpenVZ so I guess / isn't meant to be in there.. this could also be whats wrong I imagine...

Howdy,

Try copying the /etc/mtab file over top of your existing /etc/fstab file.

After doing that, are you then able to enable quotas?
