`quota-report` reports incorrect `scratch` usage
The usage value for /scratch/$USER/
in the quota-report
command is inaccurate.
We claim that it reports usage under /scratch/$USER
, but what it actually reports is total file size of files owned by $USER
in all of /scratch/
. These files are not necessarily in /scratch/$USER
.
Example:
Suppose Matt and I both have rwx
to a shared directory. Matt creates a file. I can then mv
the file to my /scratch/$USER/
directory and increase Matt's reported usage.
