QUOTA(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 						  QUOTA(1)

NAME

     quota -- display disk usage and limits

SYNOPSIS

     quota [-g] [-u] [-v | -q]
     quota [-u] [-v | -q] user
     quota [-g] [-v | -q] group

DESCRIPTION

     Quota displays users' disk usage and limits.  By default only the user quotas are printed.

     Options:

     -g      Print group quotas for the group of which the user is a member.  The optional -u flag is equivalent to the default.

     -v      quota will display quotas on filesystems where no storage is allocated.

     -q      Print a more terse message, containing only information on filesystems where usage is over quota.

     Specifying both -g and -u displays both the user quotas and the group quotas (for the user).

     Only the super-user may use the -u flag and the optional user argument to view the limits of other users.	Non-super-users can use the -g
     flag and optional group argument to view only the limits of groups of which they are members.

     The -q flag takes precedence over the -v flag.

     Quota reports the quotas of all the filesystems that have a mount option file located at its root.  If quota exits with a non-zero status,
     then one or more filesystems are over quota.

FILES

     Each of the following quota files is located at the root of the mounted filesystem.  The mount option files are empty files whose existence
     indicates that quotas are to be enabled for that filesystem.

     .quota.user       data file containing user quotas
     .quota.group      data file containing group quotas
     .quota.ops.user   mount option file used to enable user quotas
     .quota.ops.group  mount option file used to enable group quotas

HISTORY

     The quota command appeared in 4.2BSD.

QUOTAON(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 						QUOTAON(8)

NAME

     quotaon, quotaoff -- turn filesystem quotas on and off

SYNOPSIS

     quotaon [-g] [-u] [-v] filesystem ...
     quotaon [-g] [-u] [-v] -a
     quotaoff [-g] [-u] [-v] filesystem ...
     quotaoff [-g] [-u] [-v] -a

DESCRIPTION

     Quotaon announces to the system that disk quotas should be enabled on one or more filesystems.  Quotaoff announces to the system that the
     specified filesystems should have disk quotas turned off.	The filesystem must be mounted and it must have the appropriate mount option file
     located at its root, the .quota.ops.user file for user quota configuration, and the .quota.ops.group file for group quota configuration.
     Quotaon also expects each filesystem to have the appropriate quota data files located at its root, the .quota.user file for user data, and
     the .quota.group file for group data.  These filenames and their root location cannot be overridden.  By default, quotaon will attempt to
     enable both user and group quotas.  By default, quotaoff will disable both user and group quotas.

     Available options:

     -a      If the -a flag is supplied in place of any filesystem names, quotaon/quotaoff will enable/disable any filesystems with an existing
	     mount option file at its root.  The mount option file specifies the types of quotas that are to be configured.

     -g      Only group quotas will be enabled/disabled.  The mount option file, .quota.ops.group, must exist at the root of the filesystem.

     -u      Only user quotas will be enabled/disabled.  The mount option file, .quota.ops.user, must exist at the root of the filesystem.

     -v      Causes quotaon and quotaoff to print a message for each filesystem where quotas are turned on or off.

     Specifying both -g and -u is equivalent to the default.

     Quotas for both users and groups will automatically be turned on at filesystem mount if the appropriate mount option file and binary data
     file is in place at its root.

FILES

     Each of the following quota files is located at the root of the mounted filesystem.  The mount option files are empty files whose existence
     indicates that quotas are to be enabled for that filesystem.

     .quota.user       data file containing user quotas
     .quota.group      data file containing group quotas
     .quota.ops.user   mount option file used to enable user quotas
     .quota.ops.group  mount option file used to enable group quotas
