Hi, I faced a problem with Quota on cPanel, There is only 500Gb SSD harddrive on a server but for some accounts Quota is more than 2Tb ! I remove /quotas.users and also disable "

Cache disk quota information

in Tweaksetting and run Initial Quota Setup many times but it's not fixed! Removed /home/user/.cpanel/ducache in disk usages, all of these are mention in Other Usage, so I search the whole server with this command but there isn't any files in it.

find / -path /home/virtfs -prune -o -path /home/${cpaneluser}  -prune -o -user "${cpaneluser}" -type f -ls > files_outside_homedir.txt 2>/dev/null

Also, disable virtfs but no luck

Hey there! Could you send me the output of "/scripts/fixquotas" so I could see what that reports?

Thanks for that - that all actually looks normal to me at this time. Just to confirm, is the quota *value* incorrect on the system, as in it should have a 10G quota but it says something crazy like 1000G quota, or is the disk usage just not accurate after it scans the quotas for the user? You could also use this command to manually check the quota the operating system thinks the user should have: quota -u username
to see if that is reporting correctly.

Thanks for that - that seems to indicate that the operating system doesn't think there should be a quota at all. At this point it would likely be best to open a ticket with our team so we can check this on our end. If you're able to open that ticket, co uld you please post the number here so I can follow along and keep things updated on my end?
