Prevent CentOS re-enabling user quotas after reboot/power failure

  • 772

I have a client that has an internal server in their office for their Intranet.

Their office recently been through some power cuts in their area recently. Whenever the power goes back on, the server will boot up, and the user quotas will be reset to a default. This is causing problems when their staff are uploading to their Intranet because they have exceeded their quota.

Every time this happens, I disable the quotas, but this gets enabled when the server reboots.

How can I permanently disable quotas, including when the server reboots?

The server is running CentOS 6.6.

Here's the contents of /etc/fstab

    Remove grpquota,usrquota, from the entry for /home in your /etc/fstab file. That will permanently disable quota usage on the volume in question.
