The grace period is set properly; "quota" is just reporting it wrong (run edquota again, and your changes should be reflected). No, there is a real problem. the grace time is not adjusted downwards (or upwards) if the length of the grace time is changed with edquota -t and the user is already exceeding quota. If they clean up and then exceed quota again, the grace will be properly adjusted. I'm bringing this up with the maintainer, the problem is deep. The maintainer says that changing the behaviour to match what you expect would be _very_ difficult. And then, there is the question of semantics: should files with "grandfathered" quotas keep their old grace times, or adopt the new grace time? People might argue either way. |
