Hello,

My userquota on my VPS is not correct. The value of the Disk usage is less than the normal count. The diskspace now according DirectAdmin is: 113.1/2500, while the whole user directory is around 1.200 MB's.

The problem has suddenly arisen. Although I have update Bash, but that was after the nightly quota job was done.

The DirectAdmin error.log says:
Code:
014:09:25-14:34:22:  is not a number
2014:09:25-15:05:18: Unable to get quotas: repquota: Mountpoint (or device) / not found.
repquota: Not all specified mountpoints are using quota.

2014:09:25-15:05:20: File ./data/users/USERNAME/user.usage has been written to after this process read it.  Not going to overwrite it.
2014:09:25-15:15:28: Unable to get quotas: repquota: Mountpoint (or device) / not found.
repquota: Not all specified mountpoints are using quota.

2014:09:25-15:15:31: File ./data/users/USERNAME/user.usage has been written to after this process read it.  Not going to overwrite it.
How did this come about?
Regardless of the problem, does this eventually problems with the accessibility of the server? And how can i fix this?
 
I run the command df -h, and i see this:

Code:
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/simfs             10G  3.6G  6.5G  36% /
none                  640M  4.0K  640M   1% /dev

*** Note: If you're running a VPS with a "simfs" file system, quotas usually cannot be enabled with normal means. Contact yoru VPS provider to enable quotas for you.
Assuming this note in the help, the problem is existing in the VPS System of my webhoster?
 
For OpenVZ based VPS you need to enable second level quotas. For more information you need to contact your hosting company.
 
The quota's have allways work, until today........the counters are wrong.
I've created a ticket by my hosting company.

Can anyone tell the reason why quotas on some VPS-webservers are managed by the VPS-server self? Just interesting ;).
