I'm new to Unix and I'm trying to determin how much space I have on this system. the box is dedicated to Oracle and I log in as the oracle user and type quota. It retrunes nothing. Then I log on as root and type quota -v oracle.. It returns nothing! Gosh this is actually a solaris 5.7 box. Am I in the wrong place?
There is a virtual link to another box (also solaris) that stores our archives for backup. I eed to know how much space is available there as well. Why doesnt quota work!!!

vfs_default_quota
VFS_DEFAULT_QUOTA(8) System Administration tools VFS_DEFAULT_QUOTA(8)
NAME
vfs_default_quota - store default quota records for Windows clients
SYNOPSIS
vfs objects = default_quota
DESCRIPTION
This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.
Many common quota implementations only store quotas for users and groups, but do not store a default quota. The vfs_default_quota module
allows Samba to store default quota values which can be examined using the Windows Explorer interface.
By default, Samba returns NO_LIMIT the default quota and refuses to update them. vfs_default_quota maps the default quota to the quota
record of a user. By default the root user is taken because quota limits for root are typically not enforced.
This module is stackable.
OPTIONS
default_quota:uid = UID
UID specifies the user ID of the quota record where the default user quota values are stored.
default_quota:gid = GID
GID specifies the group ID of the quota record where the default group quota values are stored.
default_quota:uid nolimit = BOOL
If this parameter is True, then the user whose quota record is storing the default user quota will be reported as having a quota of
NO_LIMIT. Otherwise, the stored values will be reported.
default_quota:gid nolimit = BOOL
If this parameter is True, then the group whose quota record is storing the default group quota will be reported as having a quota of
NO_LIMIT. Otherwise, the stored values will be reported.
EXAMPLES
Store the default quota record in the quota record for the user with ID 65535 and report that user as having no quota limits:
[global]
vfs objects = default_quota
default_quota:uid = 65535
default_quota:uid nolimit = yes
VERSION
This man page is correct for version 3.0.25 of the Samba suite.
