repquota Command

Purpose

Summarizes quotas for a file system.

Syntax

repquota [ -v ] [ -g ] [ -u ] { -a | FileSystem ... }

Description

The repquota command prints a summary of quotas and disk usage for a file system specified by the FileSystem parameter. If the -a flag is specified instead of a file system, the repquota command prints the summary for all file systems enabled with quotas in the /etc/filesystems file. By default, both user and group quotas are printed.

For each user or group, the repquota command prints:

Number of existing user or group files
Amount of disk space being used by the user or group
User or group quotas

Flags

-a	Specifies that quotas are printed for all file systems enabled with quotas in the /etc/filesystems file.
-g	Specifies that only group quotas are printed.
-u	Specifies that only user quotas are printed.
-v	Prints a header line before the summary of quotas for each file system.

Security

Access Control: Only the root user can execute this command.

Examples

To print a summary of user quotas in the /u file system, enter:

repquota -u /u

The system prints the following information:

                  Block  limits                 File limits
User      used    soft    hard   grace   used   soft  hard  grace
root  --  3920     0       0             734     0     0
davec +-    28     8      30     3 days    3     0     0
keith --    48     0       0               7     0     0

The + printed in the first column next to davec indicates that the user has exceeded established block limits. If there were a + in the second column, it would indicate that the user had exceeded established file limits.
