NAME


quota - display disk usage and limits

SYNOPSIS


quota [ -F format-name ] [ -guqvswi ] [ -l | [ -QAm ]]
quota [ -F format-name ] [ -qvswi ] [ -l | [ -QAm ]] -u user...
quota [ -F format-name ] [ -qvswi ] [ -l | [ -QAm ]] -g group...
quota [ -F format-name ] [ -qvswugQm ] -f filesystem...

DESCRIPTION


quota displays users' disk usage and limits. By default only the user quotas are printed.
By default space usage and limits are shown in kbytes (and are named blocks for historical
reasons).

quota reports the quotas of all the filesystems listed in /etc/mtab. For filesystems that
are NFS-mounted a call to the rpc.rquotad on the server machine is performed to get the
information.

OPTIONS


-F, --format=format-name
Show quota for specified format (ie. don't perform format autodetection). Possible
format names are: vfsold Original quota format with 16-bit UIDs / GIDs, vfsv0 Quota
format with 32-bit UIDs / GIDs, 64-bit space usage, 32-bit inode usage and limits,
vfsv1 Quota format with 64-bit quota limits and usage, rpc (quota over NFS), xfs
(quota on XFS filesystem)

-g, --group
Print group quotas for the group of which the user is a member. The optional group
argument(s) restricts the display to the specified group(s).

-u, --user
flag is equivalent to the default.

-v, --verbose
will display quotas on filesystems where no storage is allocated.

-s, --human-readable
option will make quota(1) try to choose units for showing limits, used space and
used inodes.

--always-resolve
Always try to translate user / group name to uid / gid even if the name is composed
of digits only.

-p, --raw-grace
When user is in grace period, report time in seconds since epoch when his grace
time runs out (or has run out). Field is '0' when no grace time is in effect. This
is especially useful when parsing output by a script.

-i, --no-autofs
ignore mountpoints mounted by automounter

-l, --local-only
report quotas only on local filesystems (ie. ignore NFS mounted filesystems).

-A, --all-nfs
report quotas for all NFS filesystems even if they report to be on the same device.

-f, --filesystem-list
report quotas only for filesystems specified on command line.

-m, --no-mixed-pathnames
Currently, pathnames of NFSv4 mountpoints are sent without leading slash in the
path. rpc.rquotad uses this to recognize NFSv4 mounts and properly prepend
pseudoroot of NFS filesystem to the path. If you specify this option, quota will
always send paths with a leading slash. This can be useful for legacy reasons but
be aware that quota over RPC will stop working if you are using new rpc.rquotad.

-q, --quiet
Print a more terse message, containing only information on filesystems where usage
is over quota.

-Q, --quiet-refuse
Do not print error message if connection to rpc.rquotad is refused (usually this
happens when rpc.rquotad is not running on the server).

-w, --no-wrap
Do not wrap the line if the device name is too long. This can be useful when
parsing the output of quota(1) by a script.

--show-mntpoint
Show also mount point as a filesystem identification.

--hide-device
Do not show device name in a filesystem identification.

Specifying both -g and -u displays both the user quotas and the group quotas (for the
user).

Only the super-user may use the -u flag and the optional user argument to view the limits
of other users. Non-super-users can use the the -g flag and optional group argument to
view only the limits of groups of which they are members.

The -q flag takes precedence over the -v flag.

DIAGNOSTICS


If quota exits with a non-zero status, one or more filesystems are over quota.
