Description Clifford Perry 2004-01-25 03:13:36 UTC

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2.1)
Gecko/20030225

Description of problem:
I was reading through this chapter in the online version of the "Red
Hat Enterprise Linux 3: System Administration Guide" at
https://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-3-Manual/sysadmin-guide/ch-disk-quotas.html
and you stated two methods to remount a file system with quota support
is to unmount and then remount, or to reboot. 

There is a 3rd method which will work on live systems:

edit the fstab, and run mount with remount option. 

# mount | grep hda2
/dev/hda2 on / type ext3 (rw)
# mount -o remount,usrquota /dev/hda2
# mount | grep hda2
/dev/hda2 on / type ext3 (rw,usrquota)
#

carry on as per documentation. 

Again this is in reference to section "6.1.2. Remounting the File
Systems".
