repquota

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

NAME

     repquota -- summarize quotas for a file system

SYNOPSIS

     repquota [-ghuv] file-system ...
     repquota [-ghuv] -a
     repquota -x [-gu] file-system
     quotadump [-gu] file-system

DESCRIPTION

     repquota prints a summary of the disk usage and quotas for the specified file systems.

     Available options:

     -a      Print the quotas of all the mounted file systems.

     -g      Print only group quotas (the default is to print both group and user quotas if they exist).

     -h      Numbers are displayed in a human readable format.

     -u      Print only user quotas (the default is to print both group and user quotas if they exist).

     -v      Print a header line before printing each file system quotas.  Print all exiting quotas, including those whose current usage is 0.

     -x      Export file system quota data in a tabular dump format suitable for quotarestore(8).  A single file system should be specified.

     If invoked as quotadump the behavior is the same as repquota -x.

     For each user or group, the current number files and amount of space (in kilobytes, unless the -h flag is used) is printed, along with any
     quotas created with edquota(8).

     Only the super-user may use this command.

HISTORY

     The repquota command appeared in 4.2BSD.
