33 .Nd VFS quota system utility
43 This manual page documents the
45 utility which provides functions for managing virtual file system
46 accounting and quotas.
48 The following options are available:
51 Debug flag, show raw messages sent to and received from kernel
53 "Human-readable" output. Use unit suffixes: Byte, Kilobyte, Megabyte,
54 Gigabyte, Terabyte and Petabyte in order to reduce the number of
55 digits to four or fewer.
57 Show raw user and group ids. Normally
59 attempts to resolve and display full user and group names.
62 The commands are as follows:
63 .Bl -tag -width indent
65 .It Cm check Ar directory
66 Reports the space (in bytes) occupied by files names located in the
67 directory hierarchy present under
72 List mounted file systems having space accounting enabled
75 .It Cm show Ar mount_point
76 Show file size usage and quota limits for the file system mounted under
78 The information is broken down by uid and gid
81 .It Cm sync Ar mount_point
82 Initialize in one go the usage counters for the filesystem
85 with real usage data. This command scans an entire filesystem
86 directory hierarchy and may be slow to run
88 .It Cm limit Ar mount_point size
91 bytes for the filesystem mounted under
94 .It Cm ulim Ar mount_point user size
97 bytes for the filesystem mounted under
104 The following is an example of a typical usage
109 .Dl "vquota show /mnt/data"
