Group quota! We hadn&#8217;t even set group quotas, but it appears the system tracks the usage anyway when you mount with -o quota. Some googling turned up the following document:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/seer.entsupport.symantec.com\/docs\/277535.htm\">http:\/\/seer.entsupport.symantec.com\/docs\/277535.htm<\/a><\/p>\n<p>So it turns out there&#8217;s a 1TB maximum limit when using quotas. Since we weren&#8217;t using group quotas the simple option was to disable them:<\/p>\n<pre>vxquotaoff -gv \/cluster\/ResFS<\/pre>\n<p>Then I edited the Mount resource and changed the quota mount option to usrquota.<\/p>\n<p>This only alleviates the problem for a while. Eventually someone will need to use 1TB of storage for themselves, but hopefully that&#8217;s a little way off yet.
