NAME
chfsets - Changes limits for fileset quotas SYNOPSIS
/sbin/chfsets [-F limit] [-f limit] [-B limit] [-b limit] domain [fileset...] OPTIONS
Specifies the file usage soft limit (quota) of the fileset. Specifies the file usage hard limit (quota) of the fileset. Specifies the block usage soft limit (quota) in 1K blocks of the fileset. Specifies the block usage hard limit (quota) in 1K blocks of the fileset. OPERANDS
Specifies the name of the file domain. Specifies the name of one or more filesets. DESCRIPTION
The chfsets command enables you to change fileset quotas (file usage limits and block usage limits) of any AdvFS fileset. Filesets can have both soft and hard disk storage and file limits. When a hard limit is reached, no more disk space allocations or file creations which would exceed the limit are allowed. The soft limit may be exceeded for a period of time (called the grace period). The grace periods for the soft limits are set with the edquota command. The command also displays the changes made to the file and block usage limits. Note that the root user can exceed fileset quotas. The chfsets command displays the following fileset information: Id A unique number (in hexadecimal format) that identifies a file domain and fileset. File H limit The file usage hard limit of the specified fileset before the change followed by the new limit. Block H limit The block usage hard limit of the specified fileset before the change followed by the new limit. File S limit The file usage soft limit of the specified fileset before the change followed by the new limit. Block S limit The block usage soft limit of the specified fileset before the change followed by the new limit. Use the following commands to manipulate filesets: Displays the limits and actual number of blocks used by a fileset. Displays space usage for the specified domain. Displays the file and block usage limits for the filesets in a domain. Changes the user or group block and file limits and grace period. Turns on and off quota enforcement. For more information, see the reference pages for each command. RESTRICTIONS
At least one fileset within the domain must be mounted for the chfsets command to succeed. You must be the root user to run the chfsets command. EXAMPLES
The following example changes the file hard limit from 11 to 200 and block hard limit from 121 to 1000 for the credit_fs fileset in the account_dmn domain: # chfsets -b 1000 -f 200 account_dmn credit_fs credit_fs Id : 2c2f557f.000b15f4.3.8004 File H limit : 11 --> 200 Block H limit : 121 --> 1000 EXIT STATUS
The utility returns a 0 (zero) on success and a 1 (one) on failure. SEE ALSO

NAME
quotaon, quotaoff - turns quota enforcement on or off SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/quotaon [-guv] file_spec ... /usr/sbin/quotaon -a [-guv] /usr/sbin/quotaoff [-guv] file_spec ... /usr/sbin/quotaoff -a [-guv] PARAMETERS
Specifies one or more file systems. Specify any file system by entering its full path name or its mount point. The full path name is the name entered in the file-spec field of the file system's entry in the /etc/fstab file. The mount point is the name entered in the mnt_point field of the file system's entry in the /etc/fstab file. For UFS file systems, you can alternatively enter the name of a block device special file. For example: /dev/disk/dsk3c. For AdvFS filesets, you can alternatively enter the name of a file domain, a pound sign (#), and the name of the fileset. For exam- ple: root_domain#root. FLAGS
Turns on (with quotaon) or turns off (with quotaoff) quotas for all file systems identified in the /etc/fstab file as read/write with quo- tas. Turns on or off group quotas only. Turns on or off user quotas only. Prints a message for each file system whose quotas are turned on or off. DESCRIPTION
The quotaon and quotaoff commands enable or disable user and group quotas that have been established using the edquota command. To turn the quotas on or off, the file systems specified must have the userquota and groupquota entries in the /etc/fstab file and be mounted at the time. quotaon and quotaoff must be run by a user with superuser authority. These commands expect each file system to have quota files named quota.user and quota.group in the root directory of the file system. (These default file locations may be overridden in the /etc/fstab file.) By default, both user and group quotas are affected by the quotaon and quotaoff commands. Use the -g flag to specify only group quotas or the -u flag to specify only user quotas. NOTES
The term file system represents either a UFS file system or an AdvFS fileset. The quotaon and quotaoff commands are used to manage user and group quotas: they are not used to manage AdvFS fileset quotas. Use the chfsets command to set or clear fileset quotas. AdvFS always maintains user and group file and block usage in the quota files (quota.user and quota.group). User and group quota limit information displays with the showfsets command even if quota enforcement is turned off. When a file system is unmounted, user and group quotas are disabled. After a file system has been remounted, use the quotaon command to enable user and group quotas on the file system. RESTRICTIONS
You must be the root user to run the quotaon and quotaoff commands. FILES
