NAME

SYNOPSIS


quota [-v] [username]


DESCRIPTION


quota displays users' UFS or ZFS disk usage and limits. Only the
super-user may use the optional username argument to view the limits
of other users.


quota without options only display warnings about mounted file
systems where usage is over quota. Remotely mounted file systems
which do not have quotas turned on are ignored.


username can be the numeric UID of a user.

OPTIONS


-v
Display user's quota on all mounted file systems where quotas
exist.


USAGE


See largefile(7) for the description of the behavior of quota when
encountering files greater than or equal to 2 Gbyte ( 2^31 bytes).

FILES


/etc/mnttab
list of currently mounted filesystems

quotaon(8), repquota(8), rquotad(8)

NOTES


quota displays quotas for NFS mounted UFS- or ZFS-based file systems
if the rquotad daemon is running. See rquotad(8). In a zones(7)
environment, quota displays quotas only for the zone in which it is
invoked.


quota can display entries for the same file system multiple times for
multiple mount points. For example,

# quota -v user1


might display identical quota information for user1 at the mount
points /home/user1, /home/user2, and /home/user, if all three mount
points are mounted from the same file system with quotas turned on.
