HI all,

I have a lvm mounted and i will us it so some users put there a backup from there info, i how can i configure a quota for each folder i will have in that lvm?

Thanks.
 
Quotas are enforced on a per user, per filesystem basis. It doesn't matter if a filesystem is located on a physical disk partition, a LVM LV or a RAID volume.

Edit your fstab and make sure your filesystem is mounted with the 'quota' option.

Run quotacheck on your filesystem to create the quota files.

Run edquota -f [filesystem] [username] to set use quota on filesystem.
