In general, quota administration for VxFS is performed using commands similar to AIX quota commands; however, the VxFS commands work only for VxFS file systems.
Note
Most of the quota commands in VxFS are similar to BSD quota commands. However, the quotacheck
command is an exception—VxFS does not support an equivalent command.
See "Quota Checking With VxFS."
VxFS supports the following quota-related commands:
Edits quota limits for users and groups. The limit changes made by | |
Beside these commands, the VxFS mount
command supports a special mount option (-o quota|usrquota|grpquota
)
, which can be used to turn on quotas at mount time.
For additional information on the quota commands, see the corresponding manual pages.
Note When VxFS file systems are exported via NFS, the VxFS quota commands on the NFS client cannot query or edit quotas. You can use the VxFS quota commands on the server to query or edit quotas.
