Quota in a container

[linxlab]

Hi everyone,

I've been fighting with my proxmox version 8.1.3 for a few days


I created a volume group lvm (local-lvm) and a storage (volume-test) and then created a privileged container, with the quota service active. the result is that inside the container when I try to execute the quota command I receive

quota: Cannot stat() mounted device /dev/mapper/local--lvm-vm--100--disk--0: No such file or directory

I'm asking for help because I've tried them all!

I would add that even a container with "directory" type storage is unable to use quota

this is the result of command quotacheck

root@testws:~# quotacheck -cvgua -m
quotacheck: Cannot stat() mounted device /dev/loop0: No such file or directory
quotacheck: Cannot find filesystem to check or filesystem not mounted with quota option.

Has anyone solved this? I've just upgraded my Proxmox setup to 8.2.4 and suddenly my privileged containers quotas don't work anymore.

quotacheck -cvgua -m
quotacheck: Cannot stat() mounted device /dev/mapper/pve-vm--104--disk--2: No such file or directory
quotacheck: Cannot stat() mounted device /dev/mapper/pve-vm--104--disk--3: No such file or directory
quotacheck: Cannot find filesystem to check or filesystem not mounted with quota option.

I tried to boot the kernel with the legacy cgroup version, to no avail, both with the new kernel (6.8.8-4-pve) and old (5.15.158-2-pve).

Thanks for any help you can give, as we really need quota support for those containers.

I also tried with a brand new privileged container and a new mounted filesystem with the quota option, but I see the same error.

@fireon
The bug seems solved in today's update (kernel 6.8.12-2-pve). Thanks to everyone involved!
