SETQUOTA(8) UNIX Programmer's Manual SETQUOTA(8) NAME setquota, sq - make block quotas SYNOPSIS setquota dir [ cur ] max sq d1 ... dn max DESCRIPTION _S_e_t_q_u_o_t_a sets up or modifies the maximum block quota and present block count for a directory by modifying the file _d_i_r/._q. If _c_u_r is not specified, the current usage count is unchanged. _S_q calculates the current usage for _d_1, ..., _d_n, and sets the maximum block quota to _m_a_x. If a directory currently has no quota associated, either _s_q should be used or _c_u_r must be specified. Both _s_e_t_q_u_o_t_a and _s_q use units of 1024-byte blocks. These programs require super-user privileges. FILES _d_i_r/.q quota node for _d_i_r SEE ALSO du(1), file(1), ls(1), pq(1), quota(2), qstat(2) BUGS _M_a_x is an absolute maximum. Hence programs that write in _d_i_r may fail if intermediate usage exceeds the quota. Printed 8/2/83 1
