Quotas not really correct

I was getting a “Warning the filesystem mounted at / has only xx of free disk space”. So did a bit of cleaning.
The Local Disk space has dropped from nearly 80% to 36%. - that is much better Yet the message has not gone away?

I was also concerned about the “Disk Quotas” graph as one VS was in the red at 90%.

So I went into webmin -> system -> disk quotas and changed the quota for the offending VS group from 1G to unlimited.

However, the Quota graph is still showing this:

I was expecting the "of 1Gib to show “unlimited” and the %used to drop significantly.

oh and yes there has been a reboot.

sounds like the results were cached, has it fixed itself yet ?

Sadly No (with new browser - FF + cache cleared) still showing 1GiB for each domain!

Also just tried on another VS but this time setting to 10GiB (rather than “unlimited”) just in case the system doesn’t have a way of displaying unlimited → still shows 1GiB

Quotas data isn’t cached in the browser but rather on the Virtualmin side. Try force-refreshing the system information from the dashboard.

I had assumed (possibly incorrectly) that would happen by a reboot? (twice done now)

refreshing the dashboard has no effect on the “Disk Quotas” display

This works for me no problem you did hit the curly arrow ?

Yes -it did not change anything on that “Disk Quotas” panel.

I get the impression that nothing has happened behind the scenes/dashboard - though going back into the edit quotas they have been updated with the new values.

You have the quota set to unlimited therefore it does not display (no need to)


see the difference ?

So on a different VM (still Virtualmin) why does it?

Why does it do what ?

see the screenshot - it semi-clearly shows “unlimited” in the bar (and yes it is the same OS and versions just a different VM location)

I have no idea, just tried it on 6 vm’s always the same result, the domain disappears from the quota list
The virtualmin servers are all like this apart from some use apache rather than nginx

Tx for trying, the domains (VS) that are not showing in the graph in my OP
(and there are currently 33 in total on this VM) are sub-domains (parked for their client’s main activity’s primary domain) so use next to 0 Mib quota.

I suspect that the “Disk Quota” graphs are actually only a subset of the “active” VS or are of only the primary VS.

I am really only interested in the two orange indicated VS which are consuming so much of their allocated quota.

The top one was red until I cleared out all those Webmin logs :frowning: along with lots of other old logs (it is still of concern though as the VS is not really that active) - but I guess that is a separate issue

ATM I would be partially satisfied with the graph showing the correct values.

I have tried everything I can think of (including that) - cannot find a way to force on the Virtualmin side.

I have deleted many GiB from this VM but the quota refuses to update on any of the VS.

even changing the quota for the group to a silly test of 2 Mib doesn’t change anything!

there seems to be no GUI to specifically change the “server quota” or “server administrator’s quota”

server quota

It isn’t clear what’s going on.

I would suggest checking the collect_interval option:

grep collect_interval /etc/webmin/virtual-server/config

If disabled, the interval between status collection job runs can be controlled Virtualmin Configuration: Status collection page.


seems good enough?

Ok found that one Virtualmin -> Edit Virtual Server and under “Quotas”.
updated server quota

which does change the values in “Virtual Server Summary” but not in the Dashboard :slight_smile:
