REPQUOTA(8) BSD System Manager's Manual REPQUOTA(8)
NAME
repquota -- summarize quotas for a file system
SYNOPSIS
repquota [-ghuv] file-system ...
repquota [-ghuv] -a
repquota -x [-gu] file-system
quotadump [-gu] file-system
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 mounted file systems.
-g Print only group quotas (the default is to print both group and user quotas if they exist).
-h Numbers are displayed in a human readable format.
-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 file system quotas. Print all exiting quotas, including those whose current usage is 0.
-x Export file system quota data in a tabular dump format suitable for quotarestore(8). A single file system should be specified.
If invoked as quotadump the behavior is the same as repquota -x.
For each user or group, the current number files and amount of space (in kilobytes, unless the -h flag is used) is printed, along with any
quotas created with edquota(8).
Only the super-user may use this command.
