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. |
VxFS supports the following quota-related commands:
The vxquota, vxrepquota, vxquot, and vxedquota commands support the -H option for human friendly input and output. When the -H option is used, the storage size is displayed in the following human−friendly units: bytes (B), kilobytes (KB), megabytes (MB), gigabytes (GB), terabyte (TB), petabytes (PB), and exabytes (EB). The quota soft and hard limits, quota usage, and the total storage consumed by a specific user or group or all users or groups can be obtained in human-friendly units using the -H option.
Beside these commands, the VxFS mount command supports a special mount option (-o quota|userquota|groupquota), which can be used to turn on quotas at mount time.
For additional information on the quota commands, see the corresponding manual pages.
