QUOTA(1) FreeBSD General Commands Manual QUOTA(1)
NAME
quota - display disk usage and limits
SYNOPSIS
quota [-q | -v] [-gu]
quota [-q | -v] -g group ...
quota [-q | -v] -u user ...
DESCRIPTION
quota displays users' disk usage and limits. By default only the user
quotas are printed.
The options are as follows:
-g Print group quotas for the group of which the user is a member.
-q Print a more terse message, containing only information on
filesystems where usage is over quota. This flag takes
precedence over the -v flag.
-u Print user quotas for the user. This flag is equivalent to the
default.
-v quota will display quotas on filesystems where no storage is
allocated.
Only the superuser may use the -g and -u flags to view the limits of
other groups and users. Non-superusers can use the -g and -u flags to
view the limits of groups of which they are members as well as their own
user limits.
quota tries to report the quotas of all mounted filesystems. If the
filesystem is mounted via NFS, it will attempt to contact the
rpc.rquotad(8) daemon on the NFS server. For FFS filesystems, quotas
must be turned on in /etc/fstab.
FILES
quota.user located at the filesystem root with user quotas
quota.group located at the filesystem root with group quotas
/etc/fstab to find filesystem names and locations
EXIT STATUS
The quota utility exits 0 on success, and with a non-zero value if one or
more filesystems are over quota.
