NAME

vquota − displays disk usage and limits

SYNOPSIS

vquota [−g] [group] [−u] [user] [−q | −v]

FLAGS

−g [group]
Displays group quotas for groups of which you are a member, in addition to your user quotas, when specified without the group argument.  Displays group quotas for group when you specify group. 

−qPrints information only for filesets where usage is over quota.  Takes precedence over the −v flag. 

−u [user]
Displays only your user quotas (the default) when specified without the user argument.  Displays user quotas for user when you specify user. 

−vDisplays quota information for all mounted filesets, regardless of whether the user has any files in a given fileset, or whether quotas are enabled on that fileset.  The −q flag takes precedence over the −v flag. 

DESCRIPTION

The vquota command displays disk space usage and limits. 

By default only your user quotas are displayed.  If you use the −g flag, the vquota command displays group quotas for the groups of which you are a member. 

Unless you use the −v flag, the vquota command reports only on filesets listed in /etc/fstab that have disk quotas.  If vquota exits with a nonzero status and there are no other errors, then one or more filesets are over quota. 

RESTRICTIONS

You must have root-user privilege to use the optional user argument with the −u flag to view information about another user, or use the optional group argument with the −g flag to view information about a group to which that user does not belong. 

FILES

[fileset_root]/quota.userContains user quotas for each fileset. 

[fileset_root]/quota.groupContains group quotas for each fileset. 

/etc/fstabContains fileset names and locations.
