i go to disk quota menu and it says this:
You should setup quota for the / partition.
/dev/mapper/centos-root / xfs defaults,usrquota,grpquota 1 2

i press "save changes" it says "Data Updated!" i don't get any errors.

my fstab info says this
/dev/mapper/centos-root /                       xfs    defaults,usrquota,grpquota   1 2
UUID=c2551cc7-2837-4cff-96d9-e43bfe9549d7 /boot                   xfs     defaults        0 0
/dev/mapper/centos-tmp  /tmp                    xfs     defaults        0 0
/dev/mapper/centos-swap swap                    swap    defaults        0 0

when i go to set quota from the packages screen, i get this error
setquota: Only XFS quota format is allowed on XFS filesystem. setquota: Not all specified mountpoints are using quota.

I have tried to do this myself by using google
command: xfs_quota –x -c 'limit bsoft=978000m  bhard=980000m usernamehere' /

i get this error:
xfs_quota: cannot setup path for mount –x: No such file or directory
command "limit" not found

After a 4hr fight i have given up. My CWP version is: CWPpro version: 0.9.8.314

hi,

Though i see that quota is enabled, coz when i goto User Accounts > User Quota, i see the following:

---
*** Report for user quotas on device /dev/mapper/centos-root
Block grace time: 7days; Inode grace time: 7days
---

I have not pasted full thing. So it seems that quotas are enabled but, when I try to enable quota in packages I get this:

---
setquota: Only XFS quota format is allowed on XFS filesystem. setquota: Not all specified mountpoints are using quota.
×SUCCESS! Data Updated !
---

And the "Update Quota: (Update quota for all users using this package, also disables inode limits !)" gets unchecked.

What is the issue here ???? How to fix this ??

Thanks.

Hi, any news with this? I have the same problem. Anyone have successfully enabled quotas on a xfs file system?
