warnquota [ -ugsid ] [ -F quotaformat ] [ -q quotatab ] [ -c configfile ] [ -a adminsfile ] [ filesystem... ]

format with 16-bit UIDs / GIDs, vfsv0 Quota format with 32-bit UIDs / GIDs, 64-bit space usage, 32-bit inode usage and limits, vfsv1
Quota format with 64-bit quota limits and usage, xfs Quota on XFS filesystem.
-q, --quota-tab=quotatab
Use quotatab instead of /etc/quotatab as file with device description strings (see quotatab(5) for syntax).
-c, --config=configfile

-u, --user

-i, --no-autofs
ignore mountpoints mounted by automounter.
-d, --no-details
