Parallels Virtualization and Automation Software

SYMPTOMS

VE fails to start with the following error:

C:\>vzctl start 366
Starting VPS ...
Cannot create file M:\vz\Private\366\root\vzquota\lumber
Cannot set disk quota for VPS 366 adjust_lumber failed
Cannot set disk quota for VPS 366

CAUSE

Most likely the reason is that VE disk quota was set incorrectly.

RESOLUTION

Please go to c:\vz\private\veid folder and check root.efd file size. Then open c:\vz\conf\veid.conf and compare real root.efd size with DiskQuota value. They should be equal. If not please correct DiskQuota according to real root.efd size.

After that please try to start the VE.
