Lab: Manage RAID, advanced permissions, and disk quotas

Hello,

Regarding the last question (no. 12), instead of the provided solution: sudo xfs_quota -x -c ‘limit bsoft=100m bhard=500m john’ /mnt/, I used the edquota command: sudo edquota --user john, which virtually did the same thing. Is there any difference between the two? I am asking because it’s a bit frustrating to see commands that weren’t discussed in the relevant videos presented as solutions. Thank you.

Hello @meletiop,
It should be working, kindly refer to the attached gif.
edqouta command

Hello,

Thank you very much for the input. I have tried both methods. My point is, it doesn’t make much sense to solve the problem using a command you haven’t been exposed to. It’s one thing to search the man pages for commands you’ve already been exposed to (i.e. for different options, switches etc.), it’s another to see a command not being mentioned at all in the video, presented as part of the solution.

Hello @meletiop,
The command in the hint will increase your knowledge of different Linux commands.
but anyway, thanks for highlighting this to us, I will forward your request to the KK team.
