I like to program in Python, ANSI C, etc.

I have some responsibility in helping to manage some hefty machines. (i.e. 200TiB of disk space)

Thanks @Rinzwind. After changing the login.defs file and rebooting, I can now login.

I would think that would work, but it does not. I created a new user named 'bpotter' through the 'User Accounts' GUI. I could log in just fine with this on the main screen. I then logged back in to my separate administrative account and ran the usermod command you listed. sudo usermod -u 504 bpotter After doing this bpotter cannot be seen on the login screen or in the 'User Accounts' GUI.

We have 200TB of disks. We are constantly adding data, but right now we have around 30TB of data. If fsck is designed out, that is fine. For BTRFS it list on their wiki that you may not be able to recover from a crash or losing power. We are going to crash and lose power occasionally, so we need something that can handle this. I imagine ZFS would work, and will consider it. There is the drawback that it is only on fuse though.
