Hi, I have a 740 filer with Data OnTAP 5.3.6 I put a quota entry for username "perry" into /vol/vol0/etc/quotas perry user 50M -
But there is no entry for "perry" in /vol/vol0/etc/passwd, so there is no UID for perry(No NIS running, of course). When I run "quota on vol0", the filer crashes.
I have to boot up the filer from floppy disk, remove the entry of "perry" in /vol/vol0/etc/quotas file, then reboot the filer.
After the filter is up, everything is ok. However, I can't enable quota anymore. Every time I run "quota on vol0", the filer would crash.
The only thing I have in /vol/vol0/etc/quotas now is couple of entries for Qtree quota.
Can anybody explain when the filer still crashes after I remove the "perry" entry? How can I make the quota work again? Do I have to rebuild the filer?
Thanks
