DESCRIPTION

22       quotaon turns on disk quotas for one or more ufs file systems.
23
24
25       Before  a  file  system  may  have quotas enabled, a file named quotas,
26       owned by root, must exist in the root directory of the file system. See
27       edquota(1M) for details on how to modify the contents of this file.
28
29
30       quotaoff turns off disk quotas for one or more ufs file systems.
31
32
33       The file systems specified must already be mounted.
34
35
36       These  commands  update the mntopts field of the appropriate entries in
37       /etc/mnttab to indicate when quotas are on or off for each file system.
38       If  quotas are on, the string quota will be added to mntopts; if quotas
39       are off, the quota string is not present.
40
41
42       filesystem must be either the mount point of  a  file  system,  or  the
43       block device on which the file system resides.
44

OPTIONS

46   quotaon
47       -a    This  option  is  normally used at boot time to enable quotas. It
48             applies only to those file  systems  in  /etc/vfstab  which  have
49             ``rq''  in  the  mntopts field, are currently mounted ``rw'', and
50             have a quotas file in the root directory.
51
52
53       -v    Display a message for each file system after  quotas  are  turned
54             on.
55
56
57   quotaoff
58       -a    Force  all  file systems in /etc/mnttab to have their quotas dis‐
59             abled.
60
61
62       -v    Display a message for each file system affected.
