NAME
convertquota - convert quota from old file format to new one SYNOPSIS
convertquota [ -ug ] -e filesystem convertquota [ -ug ] -f oldformat,newformat filesystem DESCRIPTION
convertquota converts old quota files quota.user and quota.group to files aquota.user and aquota.group in new format currently used by 2.4.0-ac? and newer or by SuSE or Red Hat Linux 2.4 kernels on filesystem. New file format allows using quotas for 32-bit uids / gids, setting quotas for root, accounting used space in bytes (and so allowing use of quotas in ReiserFS) and it is also architecture independent. This format introduces Radix Tree (a simple form of tree structure) to quota file. OPTIONS
-u, --user convert user quota file. This is the default. -g, --group convert group quota file. -f, --convert-format oldformat,newformat convert quota file from oldformat to newformat. -e, --convert-endian convert vfsv0 file format from big endian to little endian (old kernels had a bug and did not store quota files in little endian format). -V, --version print version information. FILES
aquota.user new user quota file aquota.group new group quota file SEE ALSO

NAME
repquota - summarize quotas for a filesystem SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/repquota [ -vsug ] [ -t | -n ] [ -F format-name ] filesystem... /usr/sbin/repquota [ -avtsug ] [ -t | -n ] [ -F format-name ] DESCRIPTION
repquota prints a summary of the disc usage and quotas for the specified file systems. For each user the current number of files and amount of space (in kilobytes) is printed, along with any quotas created with edquota(8). OPTIONS
-a Report on all filesystems indicated in /etc/mtab to be read-write with quotas. -v Report all quotas, even if there is no usage. Be also more verbose about quotafile information. -t Truncate user/group names longer than 9 characters. This results in nicer output when there are such names. -n Don't resolve UIDs/GIDs to names. This can speedup printing a lot. -s Try to report used space, number of used inodes and limits in more appropriate units than default ones. -F format-name Report quota for specified format (ie. don't perform format autodetection). Possible format names are: vfsold (version 1 quota), vfsv0 (version 2 quota), rpc (quota over NFS), xfs (quota on XFS filesystem) -g Report quotas for groups. -u Report quotas for users. This is the default. Only the super-user may view quotas which are not their own. FILES
aquota.user or aquota.group quota file at the filesystem root (version 2 quota, non-XFS filesystems) quota.user or quota.group quota file at the filesystem root (version 1 quota, non-XFS filesystems) /etc/mtab default filesystems /etc/passwd default set of users /etc/group default set of groups SEE ALSO
