The
quotaon
utility announces to the system
that disk quotas should be enabled on one or more file systems. The
quotaoff
utility announces to the system
that the specified file systems should have any disk quotas turned off. The
file systems specified must have entries in
/etc/fstab and be mounted. The
quotaon
utility expects each file system 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 supplied in place of any file system names,
quotaon
/quotaoff
will enable/disable all the file systems 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
- Cause
quotaon
and
quotaoff
to print a message for each
file system where quotas are turned on or off.
Specifying both
-g
and
-u
is equivalent to the default.
- quota.user
- at the file system root with user quotas
- quota.group
- at the file system root with group quotas
- /etc/fstab
- file system table
