quota on HA cluster

quota on HA cluster

2006-01-20       - By Bowen, III, Clint

 Back
Hello all, I seem to be having a problem today.  Last night, for reasons
we are still investigating, server1 of our HA cluster (RHEL3 U6, 2xHP
DL380, 1xMSA500) decided to shoot server2 and take all cluster
resources.  That is what it is supposed to do (assuming there was a
problem with server2), so I have no complaints there.  However, I do
have a problem with quotas.  Somehow quotas were not turned on last
semester, so we have a handful of people over their limit.  I have
written a bash wrapper around warnquota to check if samba services are
running on that head, and if so exec warnquota, if not, exit, to avoid
possible duplicate emails.  Quota was on and functioning on server2
yesterday.  After the failover, quota is turned off on server1.

So, am I making a mistake here? Does the status of the quota system (on
or off) reside in the filesystem, so it will follow to whatever server
mounts it, or does it reside on the server itself?  And if it is on the
server (which it looks like to me), does its status survive a reboot?
Since quota was enabled on server2 when it was rebooted, if I manually
move the services back to server2 today, will quota still be enabled?
Finally, if not, how do I enable them on startup?

Many thanks,
