Add quota grab to snapshot
hello!
since I run the client on a shared linux server, is there any way to check the free space allocated to my user with something like quota -s
via Snapshot? "Monitor Space" monitors the whole drive which is shared with other users.
I don't have root access FYI

@solid-pixel Can you play with the --format
option and see if you can produce something more machine parseable? Let me know if you need pointers.
I have not dealt with a quota in a long time. What data would you like to actually see? Is a percentage of quota
and space
sufficient? I'll probably just parse and send all of this and @austinwbest will have to figure out how to display it, so give us some hints! note: some folks may have more than 1 file system show up.
@davidnewhall hi and thank you for picking this up so quickly!
I'm not sure this is what you want as I don't know a great deal about Linux, but here you go:
Supported formats are:
vfsold - original quota format
vfsv0 - standard quota format
vfsv1 - quota format with 64-bit limits
rpc - use RPC calls
xfs - XFS quota format
mrrobot@polaris:/home1/mrrobot$ quota --format=vfsold

To answer your question, I would like (if possible) to use this through Snapshots and alert me only if Storage Free <= XX%
or Storage Free <= XXXGB
(either option is fine).
If that's not possible, it would be enough to have the available space remaining in my quota showing up in the daily Snapshot.
Either percentage or GB/MB/whatever are fine, as long as I can see at a glance if I'm about to hit my cap.
Does this all make sense to you?
Feel free to hit me up on Discord if you need to, only I won't be available for the next few hours.
Thanks a lot! Pelly
Thanks for the extra data! Can you be more specific when you say "storage free" ? Storage free is not one of the header columns; tell me how you calculate that in your head. I just don't want to assume I know what these columns are.
Sorry for the miscommunication :D
By Storage Free I meant this setting in the Snapshot integration setup:

So my initial request was:
is it possible to have this setting look into quota
instead of the whole drive to see how much storage is left?
Taking this output into account:
$ quota -s
Disk quotas for user mrrobot (uid 1034):
Filesystem space quota limit grace files quota limit grace
/dev/sda1 942G 3725G 3725G 41557 0 0
the space
column is how much storage is being used.
the quota
column is the amount of storage that's been assigned to my user, which we can treat as the disk size essentially.
So to get the Storage (Free in GB)
you'd have to calculate (quota - space)
.
This would allow me to set a trigger that notifies me when the unused storage (the difference between space
and quota
) is below the amount I specify .
If that's not possible, then having a row for Quota like the Storage one here would still be better than nothing, although being able to set up a trigger would be amazing :P

Hope this clears your doubts :)
