quotaon(1M)


quotaon, quotaoff (generic) -- turn filesystem quotas on and off

Synopsis

quotaon [-F FSType] [-V] [current_options] [-o specific_options] filesystem . . .

quotaoff [-F FSType] [-V] [current_options] [-o specific_options] filesystem . . .

Description

quotaon announces to the system that disk quotas should be enabled on one or more filesystems. The filesystems specified must be mounted at the time. The filesystem quota files must be present in the root directory of the specified filesystem and be named quotas.

quotaoff announces to the system that filesystems specified should have any disk quotas turned off.

The options are:

-F
Specify the FSType on which to operate. The FSType should either be specified here or be determinable from /etc/vfstab by matching the inputfs (device) with an entry in the table.

-v
Echo the complete command line, but do not execute the command. The command line is generated by using the options and arguments provided by the user and adding to them information derived from /etc/vfstab. This option should be used to verify and validate the command line.

-o
Specify FSType-specific options.

Files

/etc/mnttab
mounted filesystems

/etc/vfstab
list of default parameters for each filesystem
