Quota issue: does it need to be enabled in all partitions?

[DesFire]

Hi,

So I faced some quota issues, I managed to fix the "/" partition, however, after running quotas again, there is still one partition that seems not the have it enable, it is /boot:

/dev/md/1 (already configured quotas = 0).
Warning : Your system does not have a separate filesystem for backups. This may cause performance degradation during the backup process.
/dev/md/2 (already configured quotas = 1).
/boot (removing journaled quotas)
Warning : Your system does not have a separate filesystem for backups. This may cause performance degradation during the backup process.
/ (already configured quotas = 1).

my fstab file:

proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
/dev/md/0 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/md/1 /boot ext3 defaults 0 0
/dev/md/2 / ext4 usrjquota=quota.user,jqfmt=vfsv0 0 0
/usr/tmpDSK /tmp ext3 defaults,noauto 0 0
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults,usrquota 1 2
LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults,usrquota 1 2

Ls:
cldeploy cldeploy.1 cldeploy.2 cldeploy.3 cloudlinux_ea3_to_ea4 cpanel3-skel installer.lock perl5 tmp

This is the output I had before fixing "/" directory:

I am afraid to reboot before making sure everything is fine

I tried to run fix quotas once again and it says: Another instance of initquotas appears to be running at PID '34369'.

not true, there is another process but not quotas, I kill that process and it regenerates, not allowing me to fix quotas

Hi @DesFire

The only filesystems you should need quotas enabled on are where your site data is stored. Can you show me the output of the following:

cat /proc/mounts

And to see if that PID is still running:

ps faux |grep 34369
