DESCRIPTION

       -F quotaformat

	      vfsv0 (version 2 quota), rpc (quota over NFS), xfs (quota on XFS filesystem)

       -u     Set user quotas for named user. This is the default.

       -g     Set group quotas for named group.

       -p protoname
	      Use quota settings of user or group protoname to set the quota for the named user or group.

       -t     Set grace times for users/groups. Times block-grace and inode-grace are specified in seconds.

       -a     Go through all filesystems with quota in /etc/mtab and perform setting.
