quotaoff

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 any disk quotas turned off.  The filesystems specified must have entries in /etc/fstab and be mounted.
     quotaon expects each filesystem to have quota files named quota.user and quota.group which are located at the root of the associated file
     system.  These defaults may be overridden in /etc/fstab.  By default both user and group quotas are enabled.

     Available options:

     -a      If the -a flag is supplied in place of any filesystem names, quotaon/quotaoff will enable/disable all the filesystems indicated in
	     /etc/fstab to be read-write with disk quotas.  By default only the types of quotas listed in /etc/fstab are enabled.

     -g      Only group quotas listed in /etc/fstab should be enabled/disabled.

     -u      Only user quotas listed in /etc/fstab should be enabled/disabled.

     -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.

FILES

     quota.user   at the filesystem root with user quotas
     quota.group  at the filesystem root with group quotas
     /etc/fstab   filesystem table
