Thanks for your suggestion. My tests seemed to work. I was able to add about 4 more filesystems to this cron job script and an email alert when it reaches the thresh hold.

WARNQUOTA(8)						      System Manager's Manual						      WARNQUOTA(8)

NAME
warnquota - send mail to users over quota SYNOPSIS
warnquota [ -ugsid ] [ -F quotaformat ] [ -q quotatab ] [ -c configfile ] [ -a adminsfile ] DESCRIPTION
warnquota checks the disk quota for each local filesystem and mails a warning message to those users who have reached their softlimit. It is typically run via cron(8). -F, --format=quotaformat Perform setting for specified format (ie. don't perform format autodetection). Possible format names are: vfsold (version 1 quota), vfsv0 (version 2 quota), rpc (quota over NFS), xfs (quota on XFS filesystem) -q, --quota-tab=quotatab Use quotatab instead of /etc/quotatab as file with device description strings (see example file for syntax). -c, --config=configfile Use configfile instead of /etc/warnquota.conf as configuration file (see example file for syntax). -a, --admins-file=adminsfile Use adminsfile instead of /etc/quotagrpadmins as a file with administrators of the groups. -u, --user check whether users are not exceeding quotas (default). -g, --group check whether groups are not exceeding quotas. If group is exceeding quota a mail is sent to the user specified in /etc/quotagrpad- mins. -s, --human-readable Try to report used space, number of used inodes and limits in more appropriate units than the default ones. -i, --no-autofs ignore mountpoints mounted by automounter. -d, --no-details do not attach quota report in email. FILES
aquota.user quota file at the filesystem root (version 2 quota, non-XFS filesystems) quota.user quota file at the filesystem root (version 1 quota, non-XFS filesystems) /etc/warnquota.conf configuration file /etc/quotatab device description /etc/quotagrpadmins administrators of the groups /etc/mtab default filesystems /etc/passwd default set of users SEE ALSO
