Hello.
I installed Cpanel on a Centos 7.4 server.

Everthing went fine and looks working.
Now I tried to secure my tmp partition and I get this error:

*** Notice *** No loop module detected
If the loopback block device is built as a module, try running `modprobe loop` as root via ssh and running this script again.
If the loopback block device is built into the kernel itself, you can ignore this message.
I've found a couple of threads about this on the cpanel forums and it said try "modprobe loop" which doesn't give me any result:
Code:
[email protected] ~ # modprobe loop
[email protected] ~ #
How can I fix this?

Hello.
I tried to make it a 10 GB /tmp but it looks like it only made 4 GB.
Code:
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
This is my df -h output at the moment:
Code:
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/md2        1.8T  6.4G  1.7T   1% /
devtmpfs         16G     0   16G   0% /dev
tmpfs            16G     0   16G   0% /dev/shm
tmpfs            16G   17M   16G   1% /run
tmpfs            16G     0   16G   0% /sys/fs/cgroup
/dev/md1        488M  184M  279M  40% /boot
/dev/loop0      3.9G  8.4M  3.7G   1% /tmp
tmpfs           3.2G     0  3.2G   0% /run/user/0
The server is no VPS, it's a real dedicated server running Centos 7.4, no virtualization.
Thank you.

Hello,


It's there and seems to be configured correctly you can confirm this by running:

losetup -f

in this case it appears to be the second notice:

If the loopback block device is built into the kernel itself, you can ignore this message.

Thank you,
