Does it need to be configured at root level for it to perform the activity for all user files on the server
I am tempted to say no, but I dont know your system... If someone unset read for all on such files and you do not belong to the specified group then it cannot be read... and so the answer would be you must be root...
Now who is the silly guy going to do such thing on log files? If you do so ( yes I do have to is some cases...) then you set also the group ownership for the people that can read the logs... and so you dont need to be root, only be member of the good group...

repquota
REPQUOTA(8) BSD System Manager's Manual REPQUOTA(8)
NAME
repquota -- summarize quotas for a file system
SYNOPSIS
repquota [-g] [-u] [-v] filesystem ...
repquota [-g] [-u] [-v] -a
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 filesystems configured with a quota mount option file at its root.
-g Print only group quotas (the default is to print both group and user quotas if they exist).
-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 filesystem quotas.
For each user or group, the current number of files and amount of space (in kilobytes) is printed, along with any quotas created with
edquota(8).
Only members of the operator group or the super-user may use this command.
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
SEE ALSO
quota(1), quotactl(2), edquota(8), quotacheck(8), quotaon(8)
DIAGNOSTICS
Various messages about inaccessible files; self-explanatory.
