Recovering Winbox Quota

Last modified: 03 Feb 2005

WARNING: This documentation covers Parallels H-Sphere versions up to 3.1. For the latest up-to-date Parallels H-Sphere documentation, please proceed to the official Parallels site.

To recover Winbox quota:

1. Download Recreation scripts in a zip archive and unpack them to a separate directory on the Winbox, for example recreation_scripts.
2. Log into the system database and run the following DB query to select the users and their space limit:

   select unix_user.login, quotas.size_mb from unix_user, parent_child, quotas where hostid=??? and parent_child.parent_id=unix_user.id and parent_child.child_id=quotas.id and parent_child.child_type=4001;

   replacing ??? with the ID of the logical server you are recovering.
3. Copy results of the query into a text file in the recreation_scripts directory and name it, for instance, quotat.txt.
4. Enter the recreation_scripts directory and run the following command:
   Rquota.bat %1 %2 %3 %4 > quota.txt
   where:
   rem %1 - file name, e.g. quota.txt
   rem %2 - Winbox IP
   rem %3 - H-Sphere login used at Winbox installation
   rem %4 - H-Sphere password used at Winbox installation
5. Open quota.txt and remove the first part leaving only the list of links.
6. Run the following command:
   WGET.EXE -i quota.txt
   This will recreate quota resource on the Winbox.
