QUOTAON(8) UNIX Programmer's Manual QUOTAON(8) NAME quotaon, quotaoff - turn filesystem quotas on and off SYNOPSIS quotaon [-v] filesystem ... quotaon [-v] -a quotaoff [-v] filesystem ... quotaoff [-v] -a DESCRIPTION Quotaon announces to the system that disk quotas should be enabled on one or more filesystems. Quotaoff announces to the system that the specified filesystems should have any disk quotas diskquotas turned off. The filesystems speci- fied must have entries in /etc/fstab and be mounted. Quo- taon expects each filesystem to have a quota file named quo- tas located at the root of the associated file system. These defaults may be overridden in /etc/fstab. Available options: -a If the -a flag is supplied in place of any filesystem names, quotaon/quotaoff will enable/disable all the filesystems indicated in /etc/fstab to be read-write with disk quo- tas. -v Causes quotaon and quotaoff to print a mes- sage for each filesystem where quotas are turned on or off.
