Then, set the quota slightly above the current disk usage: # edquota WEBSPACE_USER Where WEBSPACE_ID is the ID of the customer's webspace in question. If the hosting server in question is a Parallels Virtuozzo container, see the solution at the end of the article.įirst, find the current disk quota and usage for the system Linux user using the command repquota mentioned above: # repquota -a | grep WEBSPACE_ID The following solution should be applied on a physical server or a VM. Should be executed on NFS server in case of NG, as well as repquota. So, in order to work the problem around one may temporarily increase disk quota for the problem system user using the Linux edquota utility. In general, exceeded disk quota should not affect FTP user management in POA CCP, customer just must not be able to upload more data in their webspace than disk quota allows. Since the customer exceeded disk quota for their webspace the operation to change webspace ownership fails with the error message 'Disk quota exceeded (errno 122)'. Where WEBSPACE_ID is the ID of the customer's webspace in question, it may be found in POA Customer or Provider CP.ĭuring any operation on webspace (including FTP users management) POA is trying to set correct ownership on customer's webspace: set the Linux system user created for customer's webspace as the owner of webspace. It may be checked using the following command on the Linux Shared Hosting server where customer's webspace is created(in case of NG hosting repquota should be executed on NFS server in case it returns empty results on the webserver): # repquota -a | grep WEBSPACE_ID The customer exceeded disk quota in their webspace. Last execution output Destination host_id #10 : lchown /usr/local/pem/vhosts/100001: Disk quota exceeded (errno 122).
