SETQUOTA(8) System Manager's Manual SETQUOTA(8)
NAME
setquota - set disk quotas
SYNOPSIS
setquota [ -rm ] [ -u | -g ] [ -F quotaformat ] name block-softlimit block-hardlimit
inode-softlimit inode-hardlimit -a | filesystem...
setquota [ -rm ] [ -u | -g ] [ -F quotaformat ] [ -p protoname ] name -a | filesystem...
setquota -b [ -rm ] [ -u | -g ] [ -F quotaformat ] -a | filesystem...
setquota -t [ -u | -g ] [ -F quotaformat ] block-grace inode-grace -a | filesystem...
setquota -T [ -u | -g ] [ -F quotaformat ] name block-grace inode-grace -a | filesystem...
DESCRIPTION
setquota is a command line quota editor. The filesystem, user/group name and new quotas
for this filesystem can be specified on the command line. Note that if a number is given
in the place of a user/group name it is treated as an UID/GID.
-r, --remote
Edit also remote quota use rpc.rquotad on remote server to set quota. This option
is available only if quota tools were compiled with enabled support for setting
quotas over RPC.
-m, --no-mixed-pathnames
Currently, pathnames of NFSv4 mountpoints are sent without leading slash in the
path. rpc.rquotad uses this to recognize NFSv4 mounts and properly prepend pseudo-
root of NFS filesystem to the path. If you specify this option, setquota will
always send paths with a leading slash. This can be useful for legacy reasons but
be aware that quota over RPC will stop working if you are using new rpc.rquotad.
-F, --format=quotaformat
Perform setting for specified format (ie. don't perform format autodetection).
Possible format names are: vfsold Original quota format with 16-bit UIDs / GIDs,
vfsv0 Quota format with 32-bit UIDs / GIDs, 64-bit space usage, 32-bit inode usage
and limits, vfsv1 Quota format with 64-bit quota limits and usage, rpc (quota over
NFS), xfs (quota on XFS filesystem)
-u, --user
Set user quotas for named user. This is the default.
-g, --group
Set group quotas for named group.
-p, --prototype=protoname
Use quota settings of user or group protoname to set the quota for the named user
or group.
--always-resolve
Always try to translate user / group name to uid / gid even if the name is composed
of digits only.
-b, --batch
Read information to set from stdin (input format is name block-softlimit block-
hardlimit inode-softlimit inode-hardlimit ). Empty lines and lines starting with #
are ignored.
-c, --continue-batch
If parsing of an input line in batch mode fails, continue with processing the next
line.
-t, --edit-period
Set grace times for users/groups. Times block-grace and inode-grace are specified
in seconds.
-T, --edit-times
Alter times for individual user/group when softlimit is enforced. Times block-grace
and inode-grace are specified in seconds or can be string 'unset'.
-a, --all
Go through all filesystems with quota in /etc/mtab and perform setting.
block-softlimit and block-hardlimit are interpreted as multiples of kibibyte (1024 bytes)
blocks by default. Symbols K, M, G, and T can be appended to numeric value to express
kibibytes, mebibytes, gibibytes, and tebibytes.
inode-softlimit and inode-hardlimit are interpreted literally. Symbols k, m, g, and t can
be appended to numeric value to express multiples of 10^3, 10^6, 10^9, and 10^12 inodes.
To disable a quota, set the corresponding parameter to 0. To change quotas for several
filesystems, invoke once for each filesystem.
Only the super-user may edit quotas.
FILES
aquota.user or aquota.group
quota file at the filesystem root (version 2 quota, non-XFS filesys-
tems)
quota.user or quota.group
quota file at the filesystem root (version 1 quota, non-XFS filesys-
tems)
/etc/mtab mounted filesystem table
